THE SITUATION

A national initiative to build India's first structured sustainability innovation platform needed a single partner to design, build, and execute the entire program — from concept and framework to nationwide outreach, mentorship, and a ministerial-level final showcase. The platform had to bring together academia, industry, and policy stakeholders into one cohesive innovation ecosystem. INTIN was brought in as the end-to-end program design and execution partner.

WHAT INTIN DID

FRAMEWORK

Architected the Strategic Framework

CHALLENGES IDENTIFIED
THE INNOVATION GAP

Great ideas frequently emerged from academic competitions but stalled indefinitely before achieving practical real-world implementation.

FRAGMENTED ECOSYSTEMS

A lack of consistent inbound inquiries squeezed profit margins and increased customer acquisition costs.

OPTICS OVER ACTION

Conventional hackathons prioritised massive participation volume over cultivating expert-reviewed, actionable solutions.
