Build with AI: Code for Communities (Coimbatore Edition)

Join GDG Coimbatore, TiE Coimbatore, Startup Culture and GRD College for a high-impact weekend buildathon focused on creating deployable GenAI solutions for real-world civic, agricultural, and healthcare challenges.

Developers, students, and founders will form teams to build solutions across four tracks mapped to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):

  • Track 1: AI for Good Health & Well-being (SDG 3)

  • Track 2: AI for Zero Hunger & Economic Growth (SDG 2 & 8)

  • Track 3: AI for Sustainable Cities & Climate Action (SDG 11 & 13)
