THEMES
There are two broad themes of the Festival Deeptech Innovations and Grassroots Innovations addressing needs in Healthcare, Agriculture & Animal Health, farm machinery, Natural resource management, and Environment & Clean Energy sectors.
IMPACT
Last year, the festival displayed 80-90 innovative technologies over ten days, providing a platform for interaction between innovators and visitors. Themed discussions, panels, and storytelling sessions were integral to the festival, focusing on deep-tech and grassroots innovations in healthcare, agriculture, natural resource management, environment, and clean energy.
JOURNEY FORWARD
Building on the success of the previous festival, the People's Festival of Innovation 2023 proposes to showcase around 100 innovators, involving high-level discussions among innovators, industry, investors, policymakers, and international organizations. The festival's theme, "Scaling Innovations: From Idea to Impact," aims to spotlight both grassroots and deep tech innovations.
