Federico Gómez Suárez Scholarship 2026

The Federico Gómez Suárez Foundation has the primary mission of supporting talented university students who contribute to developing solutions that address societal issues, especially challenges related to the use of technology. In honor of the memory of our beloved Federico, we have created the FGS Scholarship, named after the person who dedicated his life, studies, and remarkable talent to developing technology to help those in need, especially children.

Award: In this 6^th Edition (2026), the Federico Gómez Suárez Foundation is pleased to grant up to 3 scholarships based on the following ranking:

• 1st Place: up to $5,000 USD (five thousand U.S. dollars)
• 2nd Place: up to $4,000 USD (four thousand U.S. dollars)
• 3rd Place: up to $3,000 USD (three thousand U.S. dollars)

These amounts will be directly transferred to the university account where the winners are currently enrolled. The entire scholarship process will take place on this platform, so students interested in participating must create an account and complete all the required steps before the closing date.

The platform will allow students to save their progress as they go, providing greater flexibility in completing their application. Once submitted, students will receive a confirmation email and obtain the status of "Candidates," where they will be evaluated through different qualifying stages. These stages will cover topics that test their knowledge, skills, problem-solving abilities, English language proficiency, human values, creativity, leadership, prior social experiences, and more.
