DEVTHON 2026 · TAMIL NADU
Hackathon in Coimbatore 2026
Coimbatore — Tamil Nadu's manufacturing and engineering education powerhouse. DEVTHON 2026, organized by DevUp Ecosystem, brings a national innovation hackathon to students, developers, designers, and startups from Coimbatore — with 36 innovation domains, prizes, internships, placements, and startup incubation.
Why Coimbatore students should join DEVTHON 2026
Coimbatore has one of India's strongest pools of engineering and design talent, yet high-quality innovation hackathons that lead to real outcomes — internships, placements, funding, and incubation — remain rare. DEVTHON was built to close that gap. As a national hackathon, it welcomes teams from Coimbatore and all of Tamil Nadu, combining a 36-hour build sprint with a full innovation ecosystem behind it.
Whether you are a first-year student writing your first line of code, a final-year engineer preparing for placements, or an early founder validating an idea, DEVTHON gives you a stage, mentors, and a direct line to recruiters and investors.
