Tentative Event Date: 30 May – 5 June 2026
Location: LNBTI Campus
Spark. Build. Burn with Brilliance.
InfernoX 1.0 is a structured, multi-phase inter-school hackathon designed to encourage school students to build real solutions to real problems – not just random projects. This competition blends creativity, coding, collaboration and impact-oriented problem solving into a single exciting and educational experience.

What is InfernoX 1.0?
InfernoX 1.0 is an inter-school hackathon built around real problem-solving. Instead of generic projects, students are encouraged to identify real-world issues and design impactful technological solutions using innovative thinking and teamwork.

The Problem We’re Solving
Many student projects lack real problem focus, making them less impactful. InfernoX 1.0 addresses this by guiding participants through a structured process: register → submit a problem proposal → get shortlisted → present → build and demo a working solution.

Competitive Tracks
Participants must choose a track and build an AI or tech solution with real-world value.

Education & Skill Development: Tools/platforms to enhance learning and accessibility
Disaster Management & Resilience: Systems for preparedness, response and recovery
Renewable Energy & Efficiency: Solutions for solar, wind, bioenergy and sustainability
AI for Post-Harvest Management: Tools to predict storage needs and reduce spoilage
Open Innovation: Any original tech/AI idea that solves a real problem
