10th National Social Enterprise Idea Challenge

10 ideas. One platform. Ideas that matter.

Idea Challenge 10

The National Social Enterprise Idea Challenge returns this year for its 10th edition, marking a decade of bringing together young people from across India who are imagining new ways to address social challenges.

Since its inception in 2016, the National Social Enterprise Idea Challenge has created a national platform for college and university students to explore social entrepreneurship and develop innovative responses to pressing social challenges.

This milestone is an opportunity to reflect on the journeys that began with an idea and to look ahead to the ideas, enterprises and changemakers that the next decade may bring.

Be part of the 10th edition and witness emerging student ideas take centre stage.
