GURUGRAM, India – Samsung, India’s largest consumer electronics brand, today announced the winners of Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2025, the fourth edition of its national education programme that challenges young students to use technology to create real-world solutions for pressing challenges in their local communities.
The Top Four winning teams — Percevia (Bengaluru), NextPlay.AI (Aurangabad), Paraspeak (Gurugram), and Prithvi Rakshak (Palamu) — received INR 1 crore in incubation grants and will continue to develop their prototypes into scalable real-world solutions with mentorship support at IIT Delhi’s FITT Labs.
The jury panel brought together Samsung leadership and experts from across academia, government, and industry to evaluate the finalists’ solutions across four thematic tracks — AI for a Safer, Smarter, and Inclusive Bharat; Future of Health, Hygiene, and Well-being in India; Environmental Sustainability via Technology; and Social Change through Sport and Tech.
