👨‍🔬👩‍🔬 A dedicated team of around 20 members, including UG, PG, PhD students, and faculty, represented NIT Silchar, presenting innovative ideas and working prototypes to a national audience.

✨ This experience proved highly enriching for our students, enhancing their confidence, exposure, and real-world understanding.

We are pleased to note that few of our innovations attracted interest from collaborators for potential funding, while academicians expressed keen interest in collaborative research. Industry leaders also showed willingness to support the translation of these technologies from lab to land.

Our students greatly benefited from this exposure, gaining confidence, insights, and valuable experience, making the visit both enriching and memorable.

Building upon our successful participation at IInvenTiv 2025 at IIT Madras, NIT Silchar has once again made a strong mark at IInvenTiv 2026 at IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, reaffirming its position in the national innovation ecosystem.

🙏 We sincerely thank the Ministry of Education, Government of India, for organizing this remarkable platform and empowering institutions to showcase their innovations.
