About Event

i.Fest '18 aims at providing a platform for budding engineers to showcase their talent and inculcate the valuable skill of innovation. The entire idea of ‘Humanizing Robots’ being one of the prominent norms of the 21st century, motivated us to promote the festival with its theme being “Vivifying Automata”. i.Fest is a three-day long festival that will be organised from 5th to 7th October 2018. Last year, we witnessed over 2000 participants in this 3-day techno-social events from well known colleges, nationwide. The events we organise ensure coverage of various domains ranging from robotics to software development to business and finance. Along with that, we have an array of attractive fun events that entice the crowd and gather greater participation and lead to greater involvement in the festival. We are also planning to conduct a Hackathon during i.Fest this time.

Events

We have around 23 events from two domains i.e. technical and non-technical.

INAUGURAL NIGHT

Each year we invite notable artists and speakers for the inaugural night which is attended by 2000+ people. A few artists and speakers who were invited in the past include Kunal Newar(Illusionist) , Abhiram Cuduvalli(Manager/Architect CISCO) and others.
