Bringing this spirit of innovation to the forefront, Samsung India conducted a Design Thinking Workshop under its flagship Solve for Tomorrow 2026 programme in Alwar, where 255 students from MSME Technology College, Bhiwadi explored how artificial intelligence, technology and human-centred design can be applied to address real-world problems.

The workshop introduced students to Samsung’s Design Thinking framework, helping them identify local challenges, understand user needs and transform observations into scalable, technology-driven solutions.

One such idea came from Veeru Kumar Verma, who examined the growing challenge of traffic congestion and inefficient parking management in rapidly expanding urban centres such as Bhiwadi. Through the workshop, he developed the concept of a smart parking platform that could provide real-time information on available parking spaces and help reduce traffic bottlenecks.

“The workshop helped me look beyond the symptoms of a problem and understand its root causes. Once I started thinking from the user’s perspective, it became easier to imagine solutions that could make a real difference,” said Verma.

Another participant, Hemant Kushwaha, focused on the gap between skill-development opportunities and student awareness. His idea explored how digital platforms could help young people access information about training programmes, career opportunities and skill-building resources available in their region.

The solutions emerging from the workshop reflected the diversity of innovation opportunities that exist across Rajasthan. From smarter urban infrastructure and mobility solutions to education and workforce readiness, participants demonstrated how local challenges can become starting points for impactful innovation.

Samsung Solve for Tomorrow is Samsung India’s flagship innovation and education programme for young people aged 14–22 years. The programme encourages participants to develop solutions under four themes — AI for a Better Tomorrow, Health & Education, Environmental Sustainability, and Sport-Tech.

As Samsung celebrates 30 years in India, the company is significantly expanding the scale of Solve for Tomorrow through Design Thinking Workshops across 100 cities spanning Bharat, creating opportunities for young innovators from diverse backgrounds to build future-ready problem-solving, innovation and entrepreneurial skills.

Applications for Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2026 are open until July 3, 2026. The top four winning teams will receive incubation grants worth INR 2 crore through FITT, IIT Delhi, along with mentorship, prototyping support, training and access to India’s startup ecosystem.
