About Sustainovation

Innovate for a Sustainable Tomorrow

Because every problem should have a sustainable solution

Sustainovation is India’s No. 1 sustainability hackathon, bringing together young innovators, students, industry experts, and institutions to solve real-world environmental and social challenges through collaboration, technology, and responsible innovation.

Built on the belief that every problem should have a sustainable solution, Sustainovation focuses on enabling practical, scalable outcomes across critical domains such as clean energy, water, soil, plastic waste, and inclusive development.

 

The 2025 edition marked a significant milestone in Sustainovation’s journey, with strong national participation, high-quality solution development, and deep engagement from mentors and partners. Teams worked on well-defined, real-world problem statements and delivered solutions demonstrating innovation, feasibility, and impact — reinforcing Sustainovation’s leadership within India’s sustainability innovation ecosystem.

More than a hackathon, Sustainovation is evolving into a long-term platform that nurtures talent, fosters collaboration between academia and industry, and supports promising ideas beyond the event itself. The initiative is committed to advancing solutions that balance environmental sustainability, social inclusion, and economic viability.

As Sustainovation looks ahead to future editions, the focus remains on expanding impact, strengthening partnerships, and creating pathways for ideas to move from concept to real-world implementation.

Sustainovation is not just an annual event — it is a growing movement shaping the future of sustainable innovation in India.
