The Ideathon 💡 marks the first phase of the event, where innovation begins. Participants brainstorm, explore problem statements, and develop creative, impactful ideas aligned with digital trust, data accountability, and G20 priorities.

In this phase, teams focus on shaping their concepts, identifying real-world relevance, and presenting their solutions through structured pitches. It’s an opportunity to think critically, collaborate effectively, and refine ideas with guidance from mentors and experts 👩‍🏫

The Ideathon sets the foundation for the Hackathon, selecting promising ideas that will move forward to be developed into working prototypes 🚀

The Hackathon 💻 is the execution phase, where ideas evolve into real, working solutions. Shortlisted teams from the Ideathon move forward to build, test, and refine their prototypes through two online rounds, focusing on technical development, feasibility, and innovation.

With continuous mentorship and feedback from industry experts and academicians 👩‍🏫, participants enhance their solutions, ensuring they are impactful, scalable, and aligned with real-world requirements.

The journey culminates in the final presentation round 🏁, where teams showcase their fully developed prototypes to an expert jury, demonstrating both technical excellence and practical relevance 🚀
