The event is expanding to 11 more countries: South Africa, Poland, Greece, Egypt, Spain, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Turkey and Thailand. AAKRUTI Global 2024 aims to provide students worldwide with an opportunity to come up with innovative solutions to address both the technological and social challenges of tomorrow.
