1st Prize at Creative Clash 1.0 – Innovation Meets Design

Creative Clash 1.0 was a unique event where innovation, design, and entrepreneurship came together organized jointly by IES College of Architecture and IES MCRC College. Unlike traditional pitching competitions, this platform brought startups into a space filled with architects, designers, and creative thinkers, making it a rare opportunity to showcase E-Kaathi from a fresh perspective. Our team participated among several promising startups, each bringing strong concepts and competitive energy. The challenge pushed us to present not just the technology behind E-Kaathi, but the human-centered design and purpose that drive it. After presenting our mission, prototype, and impact vision, we were awarded the 1st Prize, along with a cash reward of ₹10,000. Winning Creative Clash wasn’t just about recognition it validated that E-Kaathi stands strong not only as an innovation for accessibility but also as a product admired by design-oriented experts. The event gave us new insights, valuable connections, and the confidence to refine E-Kaathi’s design even further. Another memorable milestone added to our journey.
