Designathon (Feel The Vibe)

As we step into March 2025, it’s impossible not to reminisce about the incredible milestone we achieved just a few months ago—on November 23-24, 2024—when we hosted the first-ever Design-A-Thon at KR Mangalam. Watching two months of meticulous planning, endless late-night strategy sessions, and passionate brainstorming unfold into a successful event was nothing short of magical.
For the past two years, we journeyed across India, immersing ourselves in hackathons and designathons hosted by prestigious institutions. Each experience taught us something valuable, and this time, we had the opportunity to apply those insights to create something extraordinary. Our mission was clear—to craft an event where quality, innovation, and impact took center stage. We were determined to ensure that Design-A-Thon '24 wasn’t just another event but a transformative experience that left participants inspired and enriched.
The results exceeded our expectations. With over 400 bright minds from top institutions across the country, three distinct tracks, and 36 hours of intense ideation and problem-solving, participants pushed boundaries, collaborated seamlessly, and delivered innovative, real-world solutions. Their energy, commitment, and creativity were truly inspiring to witness.
What made this journey even more rewarding was the overwhelming positive feedback we received. Design-A-Thon '24 earned an impressive 4.5+ star rating from participants, who appreciated the smooth execution, the unwavering dedication of the team, and the enriching experience we worked hard to create.
None of this would have been possible without the unwavering support of our mentors, Ashwani Kumar Sir and Jyoti Kataria Ma’am, whose guidance was invaluable. Our heartfelt gratitude also goes to Rohan Vijay sir and Roli Yeputho Ma’am for their mentorship, and to our exceptional organizing team whose dedication made this event a resounding success. Special thanks to Abhayjeet Singh Sir and Chinmoy Rajwanshi Sir for their invaluable support, and to our incredible volunteers, judges, and partners at CollegeDekho and ImaginXP for playing a crucial role in bringing this vision to life.
Design-A-Thon '24 was more than a competition—it was a celebration of creativity, collaboration, and innovation. As we look ahead, let’s continue to raise the bar, challenge the norm, and craft experiences that leave an enduring impact. The journey has just begun! 🚀
