HACKATHON @2019 NDIM
Smart India Hackathon 2019 is a nationwide initiative to provide students a platform to solve some of pressing problems we face in our daily lives, and thus inculcate a culture of product innovation and a mindset of problem solving.
The last edition of the hackathon saw over 5 million+ students from various engineering colleges compete for the top prize at 35+ locations.
In SIH 2019, the students would also have the opportunity to work on challenges faced within the private sector organisations and create world class solutions for some of the top companies in the world, thus helping the Private sector hire the best minds from across the nation.
Last year in NDIM this event was inaugurated by the HRD minister Prakash Javedakar and R Subramanyam, Secretary, Higher Education, MHRD on 30 March at NDIM campus.
Smart India Hackathon was organized for the second time by the Ministry of HRD under the futuristic vision of the Prime Minister of India. The grand finale was held at 28 nodal centers across the country and has become the world’s largest open innovation model.
