VIT Chennai launched the 10th edition of TechnoVIT — its flagship global technical festival — on October 31, 2025, drawing over 10,000 students from across India and 10 foreign countries, including Thailand, Poland, Australia, and the Philippines. The three-day extravaganza transforms the campus into a living lab of innovation, where coding, robotics, AI, and sustainability collide in electrifying competitions and showcases.

Inaugurating the event, Racha Aribarg, Consul-General of Thailand in Chennai, issued a powerful challenge: “Use technology to bridge the digital divide, support the elderly, and combat organized crime.” He urged young innovators to mentor seniors in navigating digital tools, warning: “Spend time with elders so they are not left behind.” His vision set the tone for a festival focused on tech for social good.

Presiding over the ceremony, Dr. G.V. Selvam, Vice President of VIT, celebrated India’s rising academic prowess: “Fewer students are going abroad — our education is now world-class and practical.” He hailed TechnoVIT as proof that Indian engineering is hands-on, with students unveiling AI-driven eldercare bots, anti-crime surveillance systems, and sustainable energy prototypes — many already in talks with industry giants.
