MATH (Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Technology Hub), the pioneering hub for AI and ML technologies and a collaborative effort between the Department of Science and Technology (DST) and T-Hub, India’s premier startup incubator, has today announced MATHack 2.0. This 36-hour AI-focused hackathon is part of a series of initiatives leading up to the Global AI Innovation Summit 2024, organized by the Government of Telangana. 

MATHack 2.0 is designed to empower students, startups, and developers in AI and ML sector to tackle real-world challenges presented by the Government of Telangana. Organized in collaboration with TalentFarm and Idealabs Ventures Private Limited, the hackathon will see 50+ final teams selected from over 20,000 applications. The event will culminate in a final pitch on September 5th during Global AI Innovation Summit (GAIS 2024). 

The hackathon will kick off at T-Hub, where participants will benefit from mentorship by experienced corporate leaders and successful founders. This mentorship will provide invaluable insights and help startups refine their ideas and solutions.  The winning teams will have exclusive opportunities to work on real-world use cases provided by the Government of Telangana and will compete for substantial prize money. Additionally, the top three winners will receive free incubation at MATH, gaining access to resources and support to further develop their innovations. 

Rahul Paith, CEO, MATH, said, “Global AI Innovation Summit 2024 promises to be a unique gathering of the brightest AI minds from across the country. It will serve as a hub for innovation, collaboration, and transformative ideas shaping the future of AI. As a key initiative leading up to GAIS 2024, MATHack 2.0 offers participants the chance to engage with industry experts, explore cutting-edge technologies, and contribute meaningfully to the AI community. We are eager to witness the innovative solutions that will emerge from this hackathon and to continue supporting the growth of AI startups through our dynamic ecosystem at MATH.”
