What You Get
Winning teams compete for a ₹2,00,000+ prize pool in cash and prizes, with the single top team earning the Grandmaster title — the event's highest honour, judged on innovation, execution, problem-solving and impact. Beyond the cash, the non-cash upside is significant: the Top 15 teams advance to an exclusive next stage at Google for Startups to refine and showcase their innovations, and selected teams from there get to present at T-Hub in front of entrepreneurs, mentors, investors, and ecosystem leaders. Participants also get access to mentors, industry experts, and a network of founders and builders through the event.
