Day 2 of Design & Innovation Clinic – 2026:

The 24-Hour Sprint: Turning Blueprints into Reality .The shortlisted teams officially entered the Prototype Development Phase. This wasn't just a workshop; it was a 24-hour marathon of innovation that pushed our participants to their absolute limits.

Deep Collaboration: Our teams worked side-by-side with CMTI scientists and industry mentors, bridging the gap between theoretical design and functional engineering.

The "All-Nighter" Spirit: Innovation doesn't follow a 9-to-5 schedule. Teams worked through the night, demonstrating incredible commitment to building, testing, and refining their solutions.

Beyond the Tech: To keep the momentum high, we balanced the technical intensity with a Cultural Program in the evening—a much-needed creative reset that fostered team bonding and fresh perspectives.

From dedicated lab access to seamless rest and refreshment arrangements, every effort was made to ensure our innovators could focus on one thing: Building the future. Watching these ideas take physical shape through sheer grit and collaboration was the ultimate highlight of the clinic.
