At the event, Samsung celebrated over 115 entrants to the Solve for Tomorrow Contest with an overview of the program, judging process, and a tribute to the finalists. A group of the Solve for Tomorrow judges shared their remarks and congratulations for the participants and winners.

Team Triage Kiosk, consisting of Kevin Lau and Ann Baek from Ontario, participated in a panel discussion alongside Solve for Tomorrow judge and Canada Learning Code CEO Rekha Rao-Mayya, and Samsung Toronto AI Research Lead Sven Dickinson, on the future of STEM innovation. The discussion ranged from advice on leveraging AI in the future, how brands and corporations can support STEM learning, to what the future holds for Triage Kiosk’s winning idea.

“It was an honour to celebrate the winners of our Solve for Tomorrow challenge. Triage Kiosk displayed tremendous innovation and a true passion for improving their communities with their winning submission,” said Jihoon Lee, President and CEO, Samsung Canada. “We look forward to seeing what the future holds for Team Triage Kiosk.
