This year, we received an overwhelming 518 entries and honoured 37 outstanding teams for their creativity and innovation.
Held at Science Centre Singapore, the ceremony was graced by our Guest of Honour, Associate Prof Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim, Acting Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs and Senior Minister of State for Home Affairs, alongside awardees, families, mentors, and friends.
A special highlight was the launch of our virtual exhibition, officiated by Associate Prof Faishal, Mr Lawrence Tan (Chairman of TKKF), and Prof Wong Limsoon (Chairman, TKKYIA Committee), followed by a tour of 26 inspiring physical booths.
In his speech, Prof Faishal reminded us:
“.. keep pushing forward with your ideas. It is never too early, or too late to innovate… Today, you are not just receiving an award. You are receiving proof that you can take an idea from your mind and bring it into the world.”
Once again, congratulations to all winners! Our heartfelt thanks to Science Centre Singapore, Ms Tham Mun See (Chief Executive of the Science Centre Singapore), and the Ministry of Education for their support.
