Don't Miss It: Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2023

> A collaborative effort between Samsung Malaysia and the Universiti Malaya STEM Centre, the Solve for Tomorrow competition is specifically designed for Forms One and Two students from all national secondary schools in the country.

> It aims to inspire students to be innovators and problem-solvers who create solutions to shape a more inclusive, sustainable and healthier future for their communities and beyond.

> The focus for this year’s themes are three critical social issues: “Education & Learning”, “Environmental & Sustainability”, and “Health & Well-Being”.

> “Education & Learning” addresses barriers and challenges to equal educational opportunities; “Environmental & Sustainability” emphasises the urgent need to protect our planet; while “Health & Well-Being” highlights the significance of promoting physical and mental well-being in communities.

> Participants are required to present an idea and innovative solutions that address one of the three themes, all of which play a crucial role in our nation’s progress. Each group of three students will need to describe the problem they want to solve and explain how science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) can be applied to address this problem in 1,000 words. The organisers will assess the entries based on several criteria, such as issue relevance, creativity, feasibility of ideas, application of STEM, and presentation of innovative solutions.

> The shortlisted entries will be announced on Samsung Malaysia’s Solve for Tomorrow website in September. The shortlisted participants will receive assistance from mentors and experts to enhance and create prototypes of their ideas at a Design to Win Workshop.

> The winners will be chosen through a competitive pitch process in December and awarded Samsung products. (First Prize: products worth RM12,000 for their school and RM6,000 per member; Second Prize: products worth RM10,000 for their school and RM5,000 per member; Third Prize: products worth RM8,000 for their school and RM4,000 per member; Consolation Prizes: two teams will receive products worth RM4,500 for their schools and RM700 per member.)
