24-HOURS NATIONAL HACKATHON
Build Fast. Break Limits. Innovate Without Boundaries.
HACKING STARTS IN
RUSH HOUR is Sathyabama's premier national-level hackathon. We bring together developers, designers, engineers, and visionaries for 24 continuous hours of creation, coding, and collaborative design.
Whether you're crafting web services, cybersecurity modules, or training hardware systems, this challenge provides a platform to validate your ideas alongside top talent from across the nation.
Outstanding innovations deserve outstanding rewards. Compete for major cash prizes and guaranteed internships.
Choose from our diverse technology domains. Pitch your unique solutions without restrictive predefined statements.
💡 Total Creative Freedom: This hackathon features no pre-assigned problem statements. Rather, choose a track and identify a real-world problem yourself!
Leveraging deep learning and predictive models for medical diagnostics, drug discovery, health trackers, and virtual care modules.

Tap to returnHave queries regarding check-in rules or eligibility? Find answers below.
Undergraduate and postgraduate students enrolled in any accredited university or technical college in India are eligible. Bring valid student ID badges for on-spot check-in.
Teams must consist of a minimum of 3 members and a maximum of 6 members. Cross-institutional teams are permitted.
Registration costs ₹200 per member (e.g. ₹800 for a team of 4). Fees are collected online via the QR code during the registration process. You must upload a screenshot of your successful transaction as proof of payment.
No, teams must bring their own microcontrollers (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, etc.), actuator matrices, prototyping shields, and connectable sensors. General AC/DC power outlets and Wi-Fi channels are supplied.
Sathyabama supplies workspace desks, power outlets, Wi-Fi nodes, continuous high-energy refreshments, lunch, dinner, midnight coding snacks, and morning breakfast. Sleeping zones are also provided.
