Solve For Tomorrow: Samsung India announces top 10 teams of Solve for Tomorrow 2023 – Times of India
These 10 teams came up with ideas to solve real-world problems ranging from converting seawater into potable water, identifying pests and diseases in crops, food wastage, cleaning beaches, developing a more sustainable leather tanning process to providing more accessibility to individuals with hearing loss. The Top 10 teams come from cities such as Maharajganj in Uttar Pradesh, Lakhimpur and Golaghat in Assam, Darjeeling in West Bengal, Surat and Ahmedabad in Gujarat, Ernakulam in Kerala, Chennai and Delhi.
How the teams were shortlisted
Following a boot camp at IIT Delhi, the Top 10 teams of Solve for Tomorrow 2023 were selected. As part of their recognition, these teams had the opportunity to visit various Samsung India offices, including its R&D centers, design center, and Samsung Opera House in Bengaluru. During their visit, they engaged in interactive sessions with Samsung employees and researchers, gaining valuable insights and experiences.
During the bootcamp, Samsung, along with its partners FITT and MeitY Startup Hub, provided mentorship to the teams, assisting them in refining their ideas. Additionally, each team received INR 20,000 to develop initial prototypes and had the opportunity to pitch their concepts to a jury comprising young Samsung employees.
As a gesture of appreciation for their participation, each team member was awarded a Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 laptop and Galaxy Buds2 Pro, along with a certificate acknowledging their attendance at the bootcamp.
“We are proud of our ‘Solvers’. Through their ideas, they have shown their passion to solve the problems India faces today. Their diverse backgrounds make Solve for Tomorrow 2023 even more inclusive and we are glad Samsung is able to play its part in empowering and supporting the next generation to achieve their full potential and pioneer positive social changes. We look forward to how the Top 10 teams strengthen their solutions with the help of mentors from Samsung and its partners,” said Hyun Kim, Corporate Vice President, Samsung Southwest Asia.
