About SAYUJ
SAYUJ is STPI's networking and resource-discovery platform for the startup community, available on the web and as an Android and iOS app. For a founder its most practical use is that incubators, industry bodies and STPI's Centres of Entrepreneurship use it to publish problem statements, contests and hackathons, invite and screen applications and publish results — so it is where most CoE calls appear.
