Samsung Solve for Tomorrow (USA)

Rated Advanced, Samsung Solve for Tomorrow asks public-school teams to frame a real community problem and move a STEM solution from an initial concept toward a persuasive, testable proposal. The United States programme is school-led for grades 6-12, with one team entered by an eligible adult employee. Competitive teams need credible community research, practical STEM reasoning, iterative design, teamwork, and increasingly polished communication across each round.
