🧵 From a small university in Assam to a global blockchain summit in London—here's my story and why I'm reaching out to the tech community today.
This is both a celebration and an honest ask for help

5,000+ people applied to our first hackathon.
300 made it into the room.
Hackyard Build 2026, co-powered by @BenQIndia. 24 hours at IIT Guwahati.
Developers, founders, researchers and designers, building side by side.
Teams built with @adaption_ai ($50M Seed), @ByteAsk (YC F26, $1M raised), @Agent37HQ (YC F26) and Nodus (YC F26).
Tools from @ElevenLabs, @render, @browser_use and more in every builder’s hands.
YC founders @TejasGupta67820 (Clean AI), @4n1rudh4 and Pratyush Saini (ByteAsk) joined live from San Francisco for sessions.
Here’s what stayed with me:
Great builders aren’t rare.
Being seen is.
Most talent never reaches the people who could back it, hire it or build with it. Nobody’s looking in the right places.
That’s what we’re building at @joinHackyard . A network where builders get found, and where companies find them.
Hackyard Build 2026 was the first step. Follow along.

first hackyard trip.
guwahati → delhi → chandigarh.
we’re going to meet people who are building.
some have companies.
some have just an idea.
some are quietly shipping things nobody knows about.
we don’t know what we’ll find.
that’s the fun part.
Hi @ZeptoNow and @startupindia ,
Need a quick clarification regarding the Zepto NOVA Food Safety Innovation Challenge.
I am a college student and have already developed a working solution for one of the problem statements. However, I am confused about whether I am eligible to apply due to the criteria mentioned in the application form. Kindly clarify.

Hey @mhrd_innovation @AICTE_INDIA 🙏 Our team from @TezpurUniv missed the #IDEBootcamp Edition 3 deadline due to Bihu & Election holidays — university offices were closed. We've emailed [email protected]. Kindly consider our late application for Phase 2! 🚀
