Why I Joined In
I’ve always loved it when creativity meets real-world stuff. This hackathon wasn’t just about competing – it was a chance to see how real businesses start. Hearing about one team from a past event getting funding and starting their own company got me super excited. Plus, having big shots from the industry come talk to us promised to be inspiring.
Galgotias University Fest Experience (E-cell Ideation Event)
Back in my second semester, it three of my buddies eagerly jumped into our first ideation event hosted by the E-cell at Galgotias University. This exciting two-day hackathon aimed to spark our entrepreneurial spirit by throwing challenges our way in different areas like health, finance, and the environment. Our task was simple: spot a problem in any of these areas and come up with a solution that not only fixes it but also has the potential to become a successful business. My idea? Using wind energy from fast-moving cars on highways to create electricity.
