What began as a small student initiative has grown into a global platform shaping the future workforce. Watching these teams take the stage at 3DEXPERIENCE World in Houston was a proud and emotional moment!

Last year, 1,812 student teams from 504 institutions across the world, including 339 all-women teams, took on real-world challenges in healthcare, accessibility, sustainability, and safety, using the same SOLIDWORKS and 3DEXPERIENCE tools used by industry leaders.

What makes AAKRUTI Global special is the impact beyond the competition. Students gain confidence, industry exposure, and the mindset to innovate. Many alumni now work at leading companies or run their own startups, clear proof that this journey prepares them for the real world.

Huge congratulations to our finalist teams and winners who pitched live in Houston and demonstrated what student innovation can achieve.

They didn’t just present ideas, they represented the future of Engineering and Innovation 💡

Grateful to every student, mentor, educator, and jury who made this journey possible. The AAKRUTI community is growing and so is its impact. 🌱.
