Former Korean volleyball player Yeon Koung Kim, British skateboarder Andy Macdonald, Australian Paralympic athlete Madison de Rozario, and British content creator and inspirational Science teacher Matt Green join the project as Global Ambassadors and actively share content for the “Together for tomorrow, Enabling people” community via social media.
The “Together for tomorrow, Enabling people” project was developed by Samsung and the IOC to help Olympic and Paralympic fans around the world experience and actively participate in the Olympic Movement.
The programme focuses primarily on the younger generation, with the new community created with the aim of helping young people engage in “solving, mobilising and creating in the spirit of the Olympic values”.
The project introduces three new community-driven initiatives: Solve Challenge integrates sport and the Olympics with Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow program, a youth-focused corporate social responsibility program that empowers young people to design innovative solutions using sport and technology to address challenges, aligned with the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) Olympism365 priorities.
The Move Challenge encourages Olympic fans around the world to move and walk more using their Samsung smartphones. The Create Challenge allows participants to create with a community of digital artists using their Samsung smart devices and S Pen.
At the launch event, 10 outstanding young people representing the winning teams of Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow competitions held in various countries were announced as ambassadors for the project. During the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris, the ambassadors will showcase the solutions they have created to address social challenges and work to engage Olympic fans around the world.

At the Launch Event, ambassadors shared their Solve for Tomorrow projects designed to solve real-world problems. The innovative solutions presented ranged from helping people overcome visual disabilities to new ways to promote worker safety.
