The Hackathon: Core Fusion 2026
Erode Sengunthar Engineering College
📌 About the Event
The Idea Pitch is a high level conceptual competition where students present innovative, commercially viable solutions to complex engineering problems. Unlike the Hackathon, which focuses on immediate builds, the Idea Pitch emphasizes ideation, feasibility, and market potential. Participants are expected to present their unique concepts using visual aids and data, convincing a panel of judges that their solution is the “next big thing” in core engineering.
