Rewind and Recode (Rajasthan)

Step into the world of innovation, creativity, and non-stop coding at the Rewind and Recode Hackathon, a premier National Level Hackathon hosted by the esteemed International Institute of Information Technology (IIIT), Bhubaneswar. This one-of-a-kind event brings together the best and brightest problem solvers, coders, and innovators from across India to tackle real-world challenges with disruptive technology and bold ideas.

Scheduled from 7th to 9th November 2025, Rewind and Recode isn’t just another hackathon — it’s a launchpad for student innovation, a battlefield of logic and creativity, and a celebration of India’s next-generation tech talent. With 24 hours of non-stop ideation, coding, collaboration, and execution, participants will compete head-to-head to build impactful, scalable, and solution-oriented tech projects.

Whether you're from a premier institute like IIT, NIT, IIIT or a passionate developer from any engineering college across India, if you're driven to create meaningful solutions, this is your stage. This hackathon invites teams from every corner of the country, ensuring a diverse pool of minds working across multiple themes — including healthcare, sustainability, agriculture, finance, education, cybersecurity, and more.

The problem statements will be released on 7th November at 8:00 AM IST, marking the beginning of the hackathon. Teams will then engage in a high-intensity sprint — analyzing, brainstorming, coding, and pitching — all within a tightly packed 24-hour window. The atmosphere will be buzzing with energy at the on-site venue of IIIT Bhubaneswar, as students code side-by-side with peers, under the mentorship of experienced tech experts and industry leaders.

But it’s not just about writing code. Rewind and Recode emphasizes end-to-end problem solving — identifying core pain points, proposing real-world solutions, justifying tech stacks, building intuitive UIs, and pitching like professionals. It’s a full-cycle product development experience compressed into 24 hours — intense, insightful, and insanely rewarding.

Once registered, teams will be eligible for further updates, problem statements, and participation in internal shortlisting (if applicable via respective institutions).
