FOR STUDENTS
YOUR IDEA,
YOUR CONTEST.
Samsung Solve for Tomorrow is for you: build a prototype that solves a real problem in your community, alongside a teacher-mentor and — if you reach the final — Samsung mentors.
HOW TO TAKE PART
SIX STEPS
FROM IDEA TO PITCH.
Each edition lasts about three months. You'll work as a team with a teacher-mentor, plus a Samsung mentor if you reach the final.
Build your team
3–5 students aged 14–22, with a teacher-mentor. Diversity equals strength.
Pick a local problem
Walk your school with a notebook. The best idea starts with observation.
Register online
10 minutes to create your account, add team members and declare your theme.
Design and prototype
Use whatever's nearby. Fast iteration beats perfection.
Test it with real people
Leave the classroom. Observe, take notes, adjust. Repeat.
Send your pitch
90-second video + 4-page brief + photos of the prototype.
