A 48-hour hybrid hackathon with tech talks, workshops and amazing prizes! Open to all branches of students from Amrita School of Engineering, Coimbatore.
Technological advancements are the name of the game today - the past two hundred years have been a whirlwind of innovation and growth. However, it's high time we start thinking about preserving this blue ball we live on, and find sustainable ways to produce and consume energy. We are strolling down the path of unsustainable development, where most current accomplishments and comforts come at the expense of future generations.
We bring to you a collaborative event from Student Energy Amrita and Google Developer Student Club, Amrita School of Engineering - Coimbatore, to help further the cause of equitable development.
Synergy is a 48 hour hackathon where students from across the many different disciplines in the University can come together for the weekend to create innovative products, learn from their peers and have some fun.
With tech talks and workshops embedded into the schedule, you can network among peers and learn a lot. Get started with the hacker community at Synergy regardless of your location, developing skillset or prior hacking experience. All are welcome. Join us for a weekend filled with community engagement and tech talks, and hone your hacking skills. Win amazing prizes, meet new people and come up with a spark of an idea that might very well end up saving the world one day!

A series of bizarre start-up ideas - enterprising participants come together to pitch the most laughable business models that they could think of to a panel of investors (comprising of passed-out seniors) and persuade them to points for their idea.
Music Night
Description:
An excellent icebreaker to kick off the hackathon with a banger, this event will attempt to replicate a small-scale music festival coupled with some food. The ambience would be informal and even allow for casual faculty-student interaction.

Ship Wreck
Description:
Participants will be putting their persuasion skills to the test through this fun event. Each player will be assigned a character - fictional or otherwise - that has been shipwrecked with only one life jacket left. The goal is to convince others as to why their character deserves the life jacket more than others.
