This year, Technovanza 2014 has organized many lectures by eminent speakers like Sachin Teke (Founder, M-Indicator), Alok Kejriwal (Founder & CEO, Games2win), Satyajit Bhatkal (Director, Satyamev Jayate). The guest of honour for this year’s Technovanza was Dr. Sekhar Basu (Director, BARC). Technovanza also has two major social initiatives,Pratigya and Mission Mumbai wherein the students contribute towards the betterment of the society through various ground-level events and activities.
With the motto of ‘Taking Technology to the Society”, every year Technovanza conducts a host of events and activities ranging from Robotics, Rubik’s cube events, coding events, projects and everything related to Science and Technology. There is an octonorm exhibition tent which displays a variety of innovative and creative projects developed by the students. Some of these creative projects also get patented.

On the major turnout this year at Technovanza, Dr. O.G. Kakde, Director of VJTI said, “Our student’s passion for creativity and innovation has made Technovanza as one of the most popular and awaited techno – management event in the country. The objective of Technovanza is to educate people about the principles of Engineering and thus spreading the knowledge of Engineering and Technology to the society at large. Technovanza has grown over 13 years with the aim of connecting technology with the society. And this year, Technovanza 2014 has proved to be bigger than ever!”.
The event’s popularity has grown in leaps and bounds over the years and last year close to 20000 people from all over the country attended the event, leading to its grand success. It is a great opportunity for students to showcase their potential and helps them in two ways. They make the exhibits with their own hands and then explain the concepts to the people who visit their stalls.
“Take Technology to the Society”, the words by Hon. Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam during his visit to VJTI in 2009 spelt the humble beginnings of Pratigya which started during Technovanza 2010. It has gone on to become one of the most admired and respected initiatives by the students in this city and has won accolades for being able to bring about a positive change in society at the grass root level. Mission Mumbai aims at volunteering for our own city through some social initiative.
