These include smart communication, smart vehicles, agriculture and rural development, food processing, robotics and drones, clean water, waste management, renewable energy, security and surveillance, healthcare and biomedical devices and others. The finale of Smart India Hackathon is scheduled for August 1-3, 2020. The process involves submission of problem statements by central and state ministries, departments, PSUs, industries and NGOs; review of submitted problem statements and finalisation by concerned committee and publishing finalised problem statements. Next, AICTE approved colleges and institutions register themselves for the hackathon. They block the problems stated and solve them.

Smart India Hackathon is a nationwide initiative to provide students with a platform to solve some of the pressing problems we face in our daily lives, and thus inculcate a culture of product innovation and a mindset of problem-solving. The first three editions SIH2017, SIH2018 and SIH2019 proved to be extremely successful in promoting innovation out-of-the-box thinking in young minds, especially engineering students from across India.
