Last year at Nirmāṇa, we asked what's next. We spent a Sunday on AI agents, cloud, and the tools about to change how we build.

A year on, the tools aren't the hard part. Knowing what's worth building is.

So this year we're bringing in people who know. Nirmāṇa 2.0 is a builders event with teachers in the room, educators who can tell you, in the moment, whether the thing you just made would survive contact with a real classroom.

The morning is where the problems come out. A panel with educators and practitioners on what AI is genuinely changing and what it isn't, then a hands-on session on AI and Google's tools for anyone starting from zero.

The afternoon is the build. Teams form around a real problem brought by a teacher in the room. You get two hours and fifteen minutes. At the showcase, you show what runs: a repo, a live link, a working demo, and the teacher tells the room whether they'd actually use it.

Nothing has to end at 4 PM. The strongest projects carry forward to DevFest, where you demo the finished thing.

What to expect:

• Panel: Education + AI → Educators and practitioners on what's coming and what's oversold.

• Hands-on Session → AI and Google's tools for schools and colleges, from zero. Bring a laptop.

• The Build → Two hours fifteen, real problems, teachers on your team.

• Showcase → Show what runs. Certificates for every team that presents.

• Community & Networking → Builders, students, professionals, and educators from across Lucknow.

Part of Code for Communities 2.0 and a run-up to DevFest Lucknow.

Free to attend. Snacks provided.

Join us at Nirmāṇa 2.0 as we build what's needed together.
