SRISTI celebrates the creativity and innovation of young technological students by recognising their outstanding projects with Gandhian Young Technological Innovation (GYTI) Awards. These awards are given every year during the Festival of Innovation (FOIN) at RashtrapatiBhavan in the month of March. This year, these awards were given on March 5, 2017 at FOIN. It is hoped that such recognition will enthuse young innovators to pursue even more outstanding research addressing unmet social needs and set up entrepreneurial ventures in consonance with Start-Up movement gaining strength currently in India. For more details on the categories of the GYTI awards, click here.

Any student project that has been completed during 2015 – 16 to 2017 – 18 is eligible for consideration of awards. The faculty members can encourage their students to submit the projects at following URL: www​.gyti​.tech​pe​dia​.in or submit it themselves under the name of the students. We acknowledge that much of the good work students do is done under the guidance of their teachers/​mentors. However, we aim to encourage creativity of students and thus request teachers to support them in the Honey Bee Network movement’s effort to promote young innovators by sharing the announcement with them.
