About this event
FINBEHAVIOUR Hackathon 2026 is a student innovation initiative by FINNMIN, designed to encourage college students to identify and solve real-world challenges in Financial Literacy, Financial Behaviour, FinTech, Digital Safety, and Sustainable Finance.
The hackathon provides a platform for students to work in teams, conduct research, think creatively, and develop practical, technology-driven solutions. Participants get an opportunity to present their ideas before an expert jury, gain exposure to the FinTech and startup ecosystem, and showcase their innovation.
Shortlisted teams will advance to the Grand Finale at the STPI FinBlue Office, Chennai, where they can compete for awards and recognition. Teams interested in taking their ideas forward may also receive mentorship and guidance from FINNMIN to validate and potentially develop their solutions into startups, based on their commitment and continued efforts.
