Godrej Appliances has joined forces with the Ministry of Education to launch the seventh edition of the Smart India Hackathon (SIH) 2024. This nationwide initiative invites students to unleash their creativity in tackling real-world problems, and this year’s focus is on sustainability.
The theme for SIH 2024 is “Innovating for Sustainability: Driving Resource Conservation (Energy & Water) in Large Appliances.” Participants will be challenged to devise innovative solutions for household appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, and desert air coolers. This dual-format hackathon—covering both software and hardware solutions—aims to inspire students to develop ideas that not only push the boundaries of technology but also emphasize sustainability and efficiency.
