About
SmartIDEAthon is a student pitching competition of ideas built on themes that are currently relevant to our nation and with the aim to create sustainable and resilient communities.
In its fifth edition, SmartIDEAthon 2024 is in collaboration with Startup India, Invest India, the Northeastern University Center for Emerging Markets (Boston), and the Northeastern University Center for Entrepreneurship Education (NUCEE). Building on the success of the past four editions, which facilitated over 3,000 applications from across India and offered cash and grants worth up to 75 Lakhs, this year's event promises to be bigger and better.
SmartIDEAthon is much more than just an idea presentation. Participants have the opportunity to meet eminent entrepreneurs and startup founders, engage in inspiring sessions, and build valuable networks. The event also includes personalized coaching through intensive boot camps conducted by internationally trained venture coaches, ensuring that your ideas are refined and ready for success. This is what sets SmartIDEAthon apart, making it a unique and impactful experience for all involved. Join us at SmartIDEAthon 2024, where your innovative ideas can shape the future and create lasting impact.
