The event was held at IGNOU’s Baba Saheb Ambedkar Convention Centre on February 10, 2026. It convened by the 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐄𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝐍𝐂𝐈𝐃𝐄), in collaboration with the 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 (𝐒𝐎𝐂𝐈𝐒) to encourage students, alumni, and AI enthusiasts. Designed as a one-of-a-kind initiative, the event was conceived to foster innovation and highlight sprint initiatives including ‘𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐝𝐞𝐚 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐈 𝐓𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐬’ and ‘𝐑𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐭𝐲𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 – 𝐀𝐈 𝐄𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐬’ 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐎𝐮𝐭’. This platform encouraged learners shape their innovative ideas into functional prototypes and viable startup concepts using AI tools and methodologies. The initiative was primarily aimed to showcase innovative work by IGNOU learners, facilitate a productive interaction and networking among participants. The event featured AI-driven ideas and prototypes developed by learners during the earlier Sprint Events held in January and February this year. As the resource person, 𝐌𝐫. 𝐌𝐚𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐥 𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐚, a senior IT and cybersecurity expert, engaged participants with practical insights on adopting technology, promoting cybersecurity awareness, strengthening data protection, and addressing real-world implementation issues. IGNOU’s official resource persons, Prof. Sandeep Singh Rawat (Director, SOCIS); Dr. Jyotsna Dikshit (Director, NCIDE); Dr. Sudhansh Sharma (Associate Professor, SOCIS); and Dr. Sujata Santosh (Assistant Director, NCIDE), mentored students by offering guidance on secure, responsible, and scalable AI solutions. The exhibits were reviewed by faculty members, researchers, and fellow learners. The 𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐨 𝐃𝐚𝐲 fostered collaboration, peer learning, and exposure as per industry-relevant expectations featuring presentations and showcased AI-based innovations and startup projects. IGNOU learners and alumni who developed a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) as a fully functional project, or an AI related startup solution, participated to showcase their talents. Event’s aim was to build an innovation ecosystem around AI-driven solutions, promote indigenous entrepreneurship, and provide a platform for innovators to demonstrate practical, scalable outcomes. 𝐌𝐫. 𝐊𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐚 (student, MCAOL programme) was declared the winner with 𝐌𝐫. 𝐀𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐭 𝐉𝐡𝐚 (student, MCA New Programme) as the runner-up at the Demo Day and Swadesiprenures and Innovators’ Mahotsav 2026.
