Tata Technologies and Amazon Web Services launch 3rd edition of InnoVent Hackathon for engineering students
Tata Technologies has launched the third edition of its national engineering hackathon, InnoVent 2026 , in collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS). The program is open to third- and fourth-year engineering students across India and focuses on real-world mobility challenges.
This year's theme, 'Innovating the Future of Smart Mobility,' invites students to build solutions using technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Generative AI, Agentic AI, IoT, Embedded Software, Cloud Computing, Digital Twins, and AR/VR. Project areas include software-defined vehicles, intelligent manufacturing, connected communications, autonomous systems, and immersive mobility experiences.
The hackathon follows a three-stage evaluation process: initial screening, virtual Proof of Concept (PoC) presentations, and final demos. Tata Technologies' subject matter experts will mentor the top teams, while AWS will provide selected participants with access to its cloud technologies and conduct hands-on workshops.
Project evaluation criteria include technical diversity, innovation, feasibility, and impact—with an emphasis on agentic systems, physical prototypes, and inclusive team participation. The competition also encourages participation from women and differently abled engineering students.
Top teams will be eligible for cash prizes totaling ₹4.5 lakhs, paid internship opportunities at Tata Technologies, and special recognition awards.
