About the event
Ideas deserve a place to begin.
INNOVerse 1.0 is an innovation and idea competition that gives first-year students an opportunity to identify real-world problems, develop innovative solutions, and present their ideas to mentors and evaluators.
You don't need a fully developed startup or a finished product. What matters is the thinking behind it — the problem you notice, the idea you shape, and the impact it could create.
