Samsung, India’s largest consumer electronics brand, has announced the winners of the fourth edition of Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2025, its national education initiative that encourages young innovators to leverage technology for social impact.

The top four teams — Percevia (Bengaluru), NextPlay.AI (Aurangabad), Paraspeak (Gurugram), and Prithvi Rakshak (Palamu) — have won a collective Rs 1 crore in incubation grants. They will continue developing their prototypes into scalable real-world solutions with mentorship and technical support at IIT Delhi’s FITT Labs.

A jury comprising Samsung leadership and experts from academia, government, and industry evaluated the finalists across four focus areas — 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.

This year’s edition saw thousands of students from across the country present purpose-driven innovations aimed at addressing local challenges. For the first time, finalists also received hands-on access to FITT’s advanced R&D facilities, helping them refine their ideas ahead of the grand finale.
