I’m Mindaugas, the founder of Techi – every blueprint for our toys is born in my mind. As a child, I didn’t dream of becoming an astronaut, policeman, or firefighter. I was most interested in following my older brother to the garage, where we would escape reality and dive into the world of building things. I especially loved taking apart and reassembling electronic devices. As the years went by, my curiosity only grew, and the technology I built became more complex: a radio receiver turned into a television, and that turned into a scooter.

My immense fascination with building and technology led me to study engineering. During my studies, I was an active member of a student organization, and one of the most memorable events we organized was the JuniorBEC engineering competition for high school students. While interacting with the students there, I learned that many of them were struggling with choosing a career path. But after overcoming a complex engineering puzzle in the competition, their eyes would light up, and their doubts would be replaced by a desire to delve deeper into the world of technology. I was always thrilled to later encounter those same young people in the university corridors as freshman students. That’s how Techi was born – from a love of technology, the joy of building, and the desire to inspire future engineers.
