INNOVATIONIN MOTION
DELHI MOVES. INNOVATION FOLLOWS.
What happens when 300 of India's brightest builders get just 2 hours to solve a real urban challenge — while travelling through the city they're building for? No auditorium. No 24-hour marathon. The Delhi Metro becomes the innovation arena.
300 BUILDERS / ₹5 LAKH / 120 MINUTES / ONE JOURNEY
Your City. Your Journey. Your Solution.
Participants receive the official challenge at the beginning of the journey. Problem statements focus on the future of urban India:
AI for smarter public transportation
Passenger experience & accessibility
Sustainability & energy efficiency
Safety & emergency response
Crowd & mobility intelligence
Multilingual passenger assistance
Digital inclusion
Last-mile connectivity
Smart-city infrastructure
AI-powered citizen services
Once the challenge drops, the countdown begins.
ONE METRO. 300 BUILDERS. 120 MINUTES.
APPLY
Students, developers, designers, researchers, AI enthusiasts and innovators submit their applications online.
TOP 300 GET THE TICKET
Applications are evaluated and 300 participants are selected. Selection considers problem-solving ability, technical skills, creativity, previous projects and motivation.
BOARD THE INNOVATION JOURNEY
Selected participants report at the designated Delhi Metro station and complete registration, verification and briefing before boarding.
THE CHALLENGE DROPS
Once the official innovation journey begins, the problem statement is revealed. The 2-hour clock starts.
BUILD IN MOTION
Participants use iNSIGHTS to research, validate assumptions and develop their solution. Problem → Research → Idea → Validation → Prototype → Pitch.
SUBMIT BEFORE THE FINAL STOP
Every team submits its solution before the official deadline. No extensions. When the journey ends, building stops.
FINALISTS PITCH
The strongest solutions advance to the Grand Finale and present before an expert jury.
₹5 LAKH PRIZE POOL
The best ideas, prototypes and solutions take home prizes from the ₹5,00,000 total prize pool.
Can You Build Before The Final Stop?
The 2-hour build sprint, station by station.
UNDERSTAND
Decode the challenge. Identify the real problem. Define the user.
DISCOVER
Use iNSIGHTS Deep Search to research, investigate existing approaches and validate assumptions.
DESIGN
Develop the solution architecture, workflow, business logic and user experience.
BUILD
Create the prototype, working demo, technical architecture or proof of concept.
SUBMIT
Prepare your final pitch and submit before the journey ends.
FINAL STOP: INNOVATION.
What Can You Build?
This isn't limited to traditional coding. Depending on the challenge, submissions may include:
The goal isn't to build the biggest product in two hours.
It is to demonstrate the smartest solution.
Search Less. Solve More.
During the hackathon, participants get access to the iNSIGHTS AI ecosystem to accelerate the journey from problem to solution.
DEEP SEARCH
Research complex topics, discover relevant information and convert fragmented information into structured insights.
PROJECT HUB
Move from an idea toward a structured project and implementation roadmap.
AI SYNTHESIS
Connect research, evidence and ideas faster.
MULTILINGUAL INTELLIGENCE
Explore information beyond conventional language barriers.
RAPID VALIDATION
Challenge assumptions before spending precious build time on them.
In a 120-minute hackathon, how quickly you understand the problem can matter as much as how quickly you code.
₹5,00,000 PRIZE POOL
Build fast. Think big. Win bigger.

Judging Framework
Innovation & Originality
Does the idea genuinely approach the problem differently?
Real-World Impact
Could this solve a meaningful problem at scale?
Technical Feasibility
Can the proposed solution realistically be implemented?
Prototype / Execution
How much did the team demonstrate within 120 minutes?
Pitch & Clarity
Can the team explain the problem, solution and impact convincingly?
Imagine This.
You enter a Delhi Metro station with hundreds of builders.
You don't know the final problem statement.
Your team boards. The doors close.
Your screen lights up:
CHALLENGE UNLOCKED.
The Metro starts moving. So does the clock.
Research begins. Ideas collide. Prototypes take shape.
Station after station, the countdown keeps falling.
And before the final stop, your solution must be submitted.
THIS ISN'T JUST A HACKATHON.
IT'S INNOVATION IN MOTION.
