InnovateYou Techathon 3.0 | Solving Social Issues Through Innovation
What started as a platform for coding has evolved into Maharashtra’s most significant student innovation movement. Led by Kalpesh Yadav, the Innovation Foundation continues to prove that when you give young minds a real-world challenge, they don’t just find a solution—they create the future. This year, Techathon 3.0 focused on Social Issues, challenging our participants to look beyond the screen and solve the hurdles facing our communities today.
