As the submission deadline approaches, Samsung Philippines Solve for Tomorrow 2026 is entering its final phase in its search for the country’s next generation of Changemakers. This nationwide innovation competition encourages students to develop solutions to local problems and create a positive impact on their communities.
With nearly ₱2 million worth of prizes up for grabs, the competition continues to empower young Filipinos to harness science, technology, and creativity to address real-world challenges and make a meaningful difference in society, proving that age is no barrier to creating change.
The challenge remains open to all Grades 8 to 10 students enrolled in government-managed science high schools across the country. Each team can have up to four (4) members, guided by one (1) teacher adviser.

Alongside a meaningful learning experience throughout their journey, the top teams will also receive exciting prizes.

A Generation of Changemakers
Last year, Solve for Tomorrow celebrated the winning teams from Cavite Science Integrated School: Team MaHeMo for its solar-powered buoy that monitors mangrove health and Team EGGNovation for its automated egg-sorting system. Meanwhile, Team BANTALAY of Tuguegarao City Science High School proposed a solar-powered pest trap to support more sustainable farming. Together, these students showed how ideas rooted in community needs can inspire meaningful change, paving the way for this year’s aspiring changemakers to share their own ideas for a better tomorrow.
Now on its fourth year in the Philippines, Samsung Solve for Tomorrow continues to inspire young innovators to use science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to create practical and innovative solutions to real-world problems.
