Entrepreneurship was on full display at Future Fest 2026, where student founders from across the University competed for funding, mentorship and market validation. This year’s highlights included:
- BIIT Tournament: A hackathon-style sprint focused on solving the “loneliness epidemic” through tech and service innovation.
- The Fast Pitch: 23 competitors, 120 seconds and a panel of expert judges.
- Hult Prize Regionals: Sustainable business models tackling global issues for a chance at $1M in seed funding.
- Proving Ground Expo: A live marketplace where 19 vendors secured real-time customer feedback and sales.
