Samsung's "Solve for Tomorrow" program has created a creative thinking playground for students, encouraging them to apply STEM education knowledge related to the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics to solve social problems such as environment, safety, sustainable development, etc.
First launched in the US in 2010, the program has since expanded to 55 countries worldwide, reaching approximately 2.4 million students and teachers.
The contest was launched in Vietnam in 2019, and in 2022 alone, the contest attracted the participation of more than 70,000 middle and high school students nationwide.
With the desire to reach and attract more students to participate, this year, for the first time, Samsung has conducted a roadshow, directly launching the "Solve for Tomorrow" program in the three regions of North, Central and South Vietnam. The number of participating students and the number of entries this year is expected to double that of last year.

In addition, Samsung also creates many opportunities to increase research capacity and application of STEM education as well as problem-solving capacity of students.
Typical activities include providing high-quality online STEM courses that ensure direct interaction between teachers and students; operating a team of senior professional advisors who are Samsung experts and employees; sponsoring a functional classroom - STEM Lab for the school with the first prize winning team...
At the event, South Korean First Lady Kim Keon Hee visited the area displaying models of the first-place winning teams of the competition in the past two years and spent time talking with students participating in the "Solve for Tomorrow" program.
The First Lady affirmed: "Korea always accompanies and supports students with many dreams like you. Hopefully through the 'Solve for Tomorrow' program, you will become more mature, and from there contribute more to Vietnam and the world."
Mr. Jo Sang Ho - General Director of Samsung Electronics Southeast Asia said that since officially investing in Vietnam, Samsung has actively contributed to Vietnam's economic development with export turnover accounting for about 20% of Vietnam's total export turnover.
In addition to economic contributions, Samsung always strives to contribute to nurturing technological talents, thereby increasing Vietnam's fundamental competitiveness.
