The Institution’s Innovation Council (IIC) of Srinivas Institute of Technology, in association with AIMES and Yukti Cell, successfully organized a two-day Marine Innovation Showcase on 21st & 23rd February 2026. This innovation sprint brought together Marine Engineering students to work on ten curated marine-domain problem statements addressing real-world maritime challenges. Over two intensive days, student teams conceptualized, designed, developed, and tested functional prototypes with practical industry relevance.

All participating teams successfully submitted their working prototypes along with structured technical documentation. The finalized project concepts and prototype details were uploaded to the Yukti Portal through the Yukti Cell, ensuring institutional innovation tracking and exploring future incubation opportunities. The event strongly emphasized hands-on problem solving, technical skill application, teamwork, and industry integration, fostering an innovation-driven mindset among budding marine engineers.

The program was coordinated by Prof. Sunil Prakash R, Event Coordinator. The event was conducted under the valuable guidance and support of Mr. Vivek V Kumar, Yukthi Coordinator, whose continuous encouragement and coordination through the Yukthi Cell ensured smooth execution and proper documentation of innovative outcomes. Dr. Lokesh V, Head of the Department of Marine Engineering, graced the event with his presence and motivated the participants throughout the session. The event was held under the overall guidance of Dr. Shrinivasa Mayya D, Principal, Srinivas Institute of Technology.
