The Escapade Begins- II

Dreams to reality. It all begins with an idea. It’s beautiful to get that spark of brilliance which can change the world but it probably means nothing when it’s just in your head. The world is not in your head. And it’s hard work to transform that dream into reality. Edison failed a thousand times in his attempt to discover a durable material for the light bulb. He is respected for that. A man who stood up for his ideas; a man who was able to transform his dream into reality. Magic didn’t conjure the light bulb, his hard work did.

Nor do ideas stop there, neither has there been a shortage of people brave enough to go through anything for their ideas. Change is a byproduct of ideas when they come to exist in reality.
Change is persistent and necessary.  From the Eiffel Tower to Burj Khalifa, from the abacus to supercomputers, change always occurs and it always manages to take one by surprise.

Now imagine if there was a platform, a platform for ideas. A place where not only were they celebrated but also coaxed into reality. If everyone was aware of this place and everyone with an idea could come forward because this platform would offer them something ‘the greats’ never had. A relief from carrying all the burden of their ideas themselves. A platform where such gifted individuals helped each other while making a spectacular show of it. Imagine the change they could bring about together.

Welcome to Techideate 2K15.

Techideate is Manipal University Jaipur’s technical festival. In its second edition in 2015, it’s an innovation in itself considering it’s just the fourth year of the college. I, being a student of MUJ, am proud of it. A product of gifted minds and talented individuals, Techideate is a thing of beauty and excellence. It might still be rough around the edges considering its young age but that just makes it all the more attractive.

Techideate is truly a thing to be celebrated by anyone with an idea. Attended by entrepreneurs and luminaries alike, Techideate provides you with a chance to get your ideas supported both in terms of money and practicality. It’s like a kick starter in real life. Recognition awaits you.

MUJ’s Techideate 2K15 dates are 13th to 15th March. Till then watch this space for amazing news and write-ups.
Till then dream.
Oh, and we have robo-wars.
