Smart India Hackathon is a nationwide initiative to provide students with a platform to solve some of the pressing problems we face in our daily lives, and thus inculcate a culture of product innovation and a mindset of problem-solving. The first four editions SIH2017, SIH2018, SIH2019, SIH2020, SIH2022 and SIH2023 proved to be extremely successful in promoting innovation out-of-the-box thinking in young minds, especially engineering students from across India. The teams have to participate in a non-stop digital product development competition conducted by Government of India for two days continuously. Regular students of Higher Education Institution’s pursuing “Graduate/Post-Graduate/Ph.D.” are able to showcase their talent and generate out-of-the-box open innovation ideas. SIH brings the next generation evolution by inclusion of new methodology to inculcate the culture of startup and innovation ecosystem across different age groups.
Our Institute organizes an internal hackathon every year to shortlist the best teams which participate in SIH Finale.
