The all-Ukrainian STEAM House competition for modelling smart devices is expanding its horizons this year, bringing together diverse projects that share the ideals of STEM education.

The competition final will gather teams that have passed regional selections, won local stages and received high marks from the competition commission. They will be joined by participants from the all-Ukrainian projects “STEM Girls” and “Ko_Laba” — initiatives that share STEAM House’s philosophy and actively promote STEM throughout Ukraine.

Composition of finalists and special invitations to the final!

This year, winners of the “Techno School” competition have entered the competition without regional selection, having subsequently passed the selection round at the all-Ukrainian level, reached the semi-final and, finally, the final.

Furthermore, the STEAM House organising committee has invited one team from the “STEM Girls” project and three teams from the “Ko_Laba” project to provide a platform for the best STEM initiatives.

The team representing the “STEM Girls” project is the team from Horokhiv Lyceum with the EcoGrow project — an innovative solution for ecological plant cultivation that demonstrates the philosophy of sustainable development in action.

The finalists will also be joined by:

Team “Botaniky” (Ko_Laba, Chernihiv) with the PlantLab project: Interactive micro-greenhouse for experiments.

Team “4 real” with the SMART street lighting control system project from Chuhuiv community, Kharkiv Oblast.

Team “Creators of the Future” with the “Light Shield” kit project from Khoroshiv territorial community, Zhytomyr Oblast.

STEAM House — a hub for innovation and a platform for exchanging ideas.

STEAM House is becoming a genuine national platform where pupils have the opportunity not only to showcase their projects but also to find like-minded individuals and share their experience in STEM fields. Teams from different corners of Ukraine will meet here, and their projects reflect current engineering and environmental challenges that can be solved through the combination of science, engineering and creative approaches.

Thanks to the support of partners who share STEAM House’s philosophy and values, the competition not only brings together the strongest participants but also forms a genuine community of young innovators.

We are sincerely grateful to our partners and everyone who has joined this important initiative: Accord Group, Logitech, GoGlobal, STEAM Train Educational Centre, U.Mentor Innovation and Partnership Centre, and the STEM Education Department of IMZO.

Together we are building a solid foundation for the development of STEM education in Ukraine and look forward to an exciting competition final!
