The chief guests for the event were Member of Parliament and former IPS officer Dr. Ajoy Kumar and Padma Shri Sanjay Dhande, who is a member of the Scientific Advisory Council to the Prime Minister of India.
The next 5 days of the boot camp was a packed schedule with speakers of international repute who helped candidates chart their entrepreneurial journey and refine their business models.

Eleven teams from different domains with exciting ideas, ranging from eco-tourism, skill development and livelihoods, health screening in schools and energy-efficient low-cost homes, pitched their plans to the Jury and impact investors.
