FLOW OF THE EVENT

After resume shortlisting, participants will fight their way through an online quiz-based treasure hunt powered by Lawyantra on 23rd October,2023, and establish their spot in the datathon.

It will be a 24-hour electrifying event in which the participants will be expected to solve real world, industry-level problems in the domains of data science, artificial intelligence & machine learning and blockchain technology. These problems will test their critical thinking, resourcefulness & time management skills and of course, their expertise in their chosen domain and its tools.

The event will be devoted to devising a unique and innovative solution to the given problem statement. The solution should be pertinent to the problem and will be judged on its creativity and complexity.

Confidence and communication are what will get the participants over the finish line. In the final round of the event, the participants will present their solutions to a panel of judges.


The road to victory will be filled with obstacles and the participants’ decision-making skills will be sorely tested – but prizes await those who prevail. No matter the outcome, it will be an exhilarating and memorable learning experience for all the participants.
