17 Bangladeshi teams have won medals at the World Invention Competition and Exhibition (WICE) 2025, an international science and innovation contest, featuring projects across various categories. Among them, 14 teams won gold medals and 3 secured silver.

The World Invention Competition and Exhibition (WICE) is an annual international event that brings together students, researchers, and innovators from around the world to present solutions to real-world challenges through science, engineering, and technology. This year's event was held on September 21 to 26, 2025, at the SEGi University, Damansara, Malaysia. The event featured an offline competition where thousands of students from several countries showcased their innovations. It was organised by the Indonesian Young Scientist Association (IYSA) and the SEGi University.

This year's competition was divided into several categories, including Information Technology and Robotics, Applied Physics and Engineering, and Innovative Social Science, under three levels: Elementary, Secondary, and University. Each project was evaluated based on creativity, innovation, practical application, and presentation.

At the Elementary level, two Bangladeshi teams won gold medals: Hollow AI (Hollow AI) for their work in IT & Robotics and Tarar Bari (Building humanity's next home beyond Earth) for their project in IT & Robotics.

At the Secondary level, eight teams from Bangladesh won medals. Gold medalists include Aquabot (Aqua Bot 2.0) in IT & Robotics, Rescue Rover (Pothochari 1.0) in IT & Robotics, RV14k (Eco Fusion) in IT & Robotics, Young Sparks of Bangladesh (Eco Pulse) in IT & Robotics, Therabot (Smart Medical Companion Robot) in Applied Physics and Engineering, Deligo (Deligo) in Innovative Social Science, and River Guard (River Guard) in Innovative Social Science. Fusion Force (Ember Knight) earned a silver medal in IT & Robotics.

At the University level, there were seven medal-winning teams from Bangladesh, according to the WICE 2025 official results. The gold medalists were Chuadanga Science & Robotics Club (HexaGuard Rover) in IT & Robotics, Team Akash Pathabo (Sky isn't The Limit) in IT & Robotics, BUBT (Agro_Doctor) in IT & Robotics, Phantom Forge (Floodhawk) in IT & Robotics, and Tech Autocrats (Innovative Social Science) in Innovative Social Science. DeltaVolt (Helmet MQ3) in IT & Robotics and Ongona (Security App) in the IT & Robotics won silver medals.
