Welcome to the November edition of our newsletter!
Last year at IIT Delhi, I saw more than just ideas. I saw potential turning into purpose. Students weren’t just creating for the sake of it; they were building with a vision, crafting innovations that solve real problems. What stood out most was their passion, which didn’t end with the competition. For many, these projects have become lifelong pursuits, shaping careers and creating impact.
These innovations aren’t confined to the drawing board. They’re practical, industry-ready, and already making a difference. From underwater exploration robots to sustainable 3D printing systems and advanced wastewater treatment solutions, these projects are setting new benchmarks in their fields.
I invite you to discover more of these incredible journeys. The Vishwakarma Awards are more than just a stage for innovation—they’re a launchpad for ideas that have the power to transform industries and communities alike.

“I am impressed by the quality and diversity of the solutions that the students have developed under the themes of water and sanitation, clean technology, and smart mobility. These are some of the most critical challenges that our country and the world face today, and I commend Maker Bhavan Foundation for choosing them as focus areas for this year’s Vishwakarma Awards.”
