The top nine participants of the Seeds For The Future 2022, Bangladesh, have been selected for the second round of the event, which will be held in Thailand.

Huawei arranged the gala event at Banani’s Hotel Sheraton Dhaka on Saturday, according to a statement. These winners will go to Thailand to join the other winners from Asia Pacific countries.

Based on merit scores from various tests and exams, the top nine students have been selected from 30 students in the second round. Some 1000 students took part in this year’s programme.

In the next round in Thailand, these students will get various types of training and compete with their project idea and submissions. The winners of the Thailand round will travel to Singapore to participate in the ‘Tech4Good Accelerator Camp’. After finishing the whole programme, Champions will get a Huawei Matebook laptop.

The nine winners are Golam Mahmud Samdani from BUET, Shadmin Sultana from the University of Dhaka, Madiha Binte Zakir and Mehreen Tabassum from RUET, Wasifa Rahman Rashmi and Md Sumit Hasan from IUT Bangladesh, Mohammad Iftekher Ebne Jalal from CUET, Lazib Sharar Shaiok and Mohsina Taz from BRAC University.

Minister of the Posts and Telecommunications Division Mustafa Jabbar was the chief guest of the gala event.

Posts and Telecommunications Minister Mustafa Jabbar said, “We need to explore the STEM fields and equip our next generation with advanced ICT knowledge. Through such programmes, we are walking towards that goal.”

“I find Seeds for the Future to be very inspiring, and I am sure our students feel the same way too. I applaud Huawei for carrying out this initiative and congratulate the winners for their participation,” he added.
