The 2022 KB Solveathon Tournament octofinals were held from November 24 to 26 for two nights and three days

at KB Insurance Ingenium located in Suwon.

​

Before starting the rounds, solvers participated in various activities to enhance their creative insights and problem-solving abilities required for success in the tournament. Through conversations with the CEO, solvers had the opportunity to hear from KB Financial Group Chairman Jong-kyu Yoon directly about KB's medium-to-long-term goals and initiatives. They also learned various debating skills necessary for the competition through lectures by experts.

 

The octofinals were conducted using themes different from the preliminaries, and each team was given 42 hours and 19 minutes of preparation time after the theme announcement. The rounds were held with four different themes, and the two winning teams for each theme could earn a ticket to advance to the quarterfinals.
