About FC-Hackathon-22

We, at Fergusson College (Autonomous) Pune envisage an Atmanirbhar Bharat wherein we as a nation will be able to enhance our contribution to the global economy. This can be made possible only through the promotion of entrepreneurship development and a visionary mind set. Entrepreneurs need to be innovators, visionaries and good leaders. To further encourage this idea, we have set up an Incubation, Start up and Training Program cell (ISTP) under which we organize an event called Innovision, a platform for the young minds to explore and excel as innovators.

FC-Hackathon-22 is a state level intercollegiate competition with a focus on ā€œideas and innovationā€ for enterprising students. The main purpose of this competition is to provide a platform to students to showcase their ideas which can then be translated into a business venture. Fergusson College (Autonomous) Pune will provide business incubation facilities such as premises, laboratories, IT services, training and mentoring to the selected students.
