 E.D.G.E 2019 Case Objective
“Driving for change” in your local community
India is a diverse geography and there are issues of local importance
which might go unnoticed at a national level. For an inclusive
growth, it is important that there is ample focus on solving the
issues at micro level.

Samsung believes that the young generation are the frontrunners

pushing for change. We encourage students to identify local cause
and develop innovative solutions, hence initiating a step towards
“driving for change”.
