Samsung Canada just announce the 150 regional finalists moving on to the next phase of the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow Challenge, which asked Canadian students from Grades 6 through 12 to identify issues in their local communities and develop solutions using science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). 

These 150 regional finalists now move closer to being awarded one of four $20,000 Samsung technology grant packages as a Regional Winner as well as an exclusive event with Canadian rocket-scientist, Forbes ’30 Under 30’ and member of a Canadian contingent working on the European Space Agency’s ExoMars rover, Natalie Panek.  

 “These 150 regional finalists embody what Solve for Tomorrow is all about: innovation, teamwork, and a commitment to the future of Canadian communities. As we celebrate Canada’s 150th this year, we are excited to see inspired student solutions come to life that will have local, national and even global implications,” said Mark Childs, Chief Brand Officer, Samsung Canada.
