Initially, 1,000 students took part in this year's programme, according to the statement. 

In the next round in Thailand, these students will get various types of training and compete with their project ideas and submissions.

The winners of the Thailand round will travel to Singapore to participate in "Tech4Good Accelerator Camp".
