Greetings from the Centre of Excellence in Data Science (CoE-DS), Computer Society of India (CSI), Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Institute of Technology, Nirma University, Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
We are pleased to invite your esteemed institution to participate in HACKaMINeD–2026, a flagship national-level hybrid hackathon scheduled from 5th to 7th March 2026, with an expected participation of 1000+ students and professionals from across India.
HACKaMINeD–2026 is jointly organized by the Centre of Excellence in Data Science, Institute of Technology, Nirma University, in collaboration with SUNY Binghamton University, USA, and the Computer Society of India (CSI) – Nirma University Chapter.
This event represents the merger of our two highly successful initiatives—MINeD (online hackathon) and HackNUThon (offline hackathon)—bringing together the strengths of both formats on a national scale.
The hackathon will feature multiple tracks in emerging and industry-relevant domains, where participating teams will work on real-world problem statements under continuous mentorship from industry experts and academic researchers.
There is no registration fee, ensuring wide participation and inclusivity. SUNY Binghamton University is sponsoring USD 1500 as grand prizes, in addition to track-level awards.
