- The aims of the competitors are to create treatments that help people live longer, healthier lives.
- The winning team distinguished itself among the best biotechnology companies, study facilities, and universities in the world.
The BIOARMOR Team from the QuestX Incubator, which includes Dwi Emas, Sri Emas, and MITstem International Schools in Kuala Lumpur, has become the first high school staff from Malaysia and Southeast Asia to qualify as a finalist in the exclusive US$ 121 million XPRIZE Healthspan Challenge, in a historical moment.
By developing drugs that recover muscle, mental, and immune function, this global competition, which is touted as one of the most optimistic science prizes always launched, aims to significantly extend healthy human lifespans, enabling people to lead longer, healthier lives.
The BIOARMOR Team established itself among the best universities, research organizations, and biotech companies around the world, demonstrating that Malaysia’s young people can excel and compete on a global scale.
” We’re delighted to be Malaysia’s and Southeast Asia’s first high school team to reach this step,” said the team. It demonstrates what young minds may achieve when they are given the chance to set great ideas, work hard, and work hard in real-world science, according to team leader Danny Kim.
The QuestX Incubator, a system that empowers high school students to handle real-world STEM challenges through hands-on research, world coaching, and innovative thinking, is where the team’s journey began. Their development has been greatly praised by SpaceQuest Asia, a young, innovative program run by Indonesian security firm CyberArmour Sdn. Bhd. The Asia School of Business ( ASB ) also expressed its sincere gratitude to the team for their early support and belief in their potential.
For our kids, SpaceQuest has changed the game. They acclaim young creativity like no one else in Malaysia. We’re even very appreciative of ASB supporting us right away,” Kim continued.
The staff is still focused on developing their medical solution as the QuestX Incubator continues its multi-year trip in the XPRIZE Healthspan Challenge with a strong goal: to redefine ageing as a longer life that is healthier, more vibrant, and full of potential as the QuestX Incubator continues its multi-year trip in the XPRIZE Healthspan Challenge.
