About Tech Myst - Ideathon
The world today is highly connected and reliant on technology. With constant advancements in technology, people can now access services more easily and conveniently than ever before. Against this backdrop, SKN IEEE Student Branch is organizing Tech Myst - Ideathon, a platform for all enthusiasts to present revolutionary ideas to transform the world. The event is open to all students with a passion for innovation and a knack for design, and participants can form teams of up to four members. The top teams with the most innovative ideas and captivating pitches will receive exciting prizes.
It is worth noting that the event comprises two phases: the first phase will be held online, and the top five projects will be selected to present their ideas in the offline phase. This is a golden opportunity for teams to collaborate, showcase their talent, and compete for prizes while learning from others.
