This initial evaluation focuses on the novelty of the idea, its technological feasibility, potential for real-world impact, and alignment with regional and industrial problem statements. Shortlisted teams may then be invited for a virtual or in-person presentation, where they will elaborate on their solutions and demonstrate their understanding of the challenge.
