A launchpad.
Tech4Bharat 2026 is a national student hackathon aligned with the Global Accelerators Vision Summit 2026, a three-day movement for enterprise, entrepreneurship and social impact.
Built around the belief that mass entrepreneurship can unlock jobs, innovation and opportunity across India, the program brings together students, founders, mentors, investors and industry leaders at Bangalore Palace, Bengaluru. The summit is designed to showcase the future across technology, AI, real estate, jewellery, professional services and skill development.
It is an initiative of the Karnataka Arya Vysya Mahasabha (KAVMS), with RV College of Engineering as implementation partner, and GAVS and HackCulture as platform partners for a bigger ecosystem of growth and opportunity that reaches far beyond the three summit days.
