Young Innovators Showcase 2026 – National Grand Finale

The Young Innovators Showcase 2026 – National Grand Finale took place in Mumbai on 8 October, bringing together 25 brilliant young minds across 13 teams from Classes VII–IX from across India, including Bengaluru, Chennai, Coimbatore, Gurugram, Trichy, Bhubaneswar, Hyderabad, and Noida.

Powered by Capgemini and implemented by AADHAAR and SRF Foundation, in collaboration with ENpower under the Promoting Education at School Program, this platform empowers students to turn creative thinking into practical, real-world solutions.

Huge congratulations to all the participating teams!

We are incredibly proud of Apurwa and Kaveri, who represented their school at the national finale with their project, “SAFAR – Smart Agricultural Field Assistance Rover.” After securing third place at the Noida City Finale, they advanced to the national finale with a mission to make farming safer and smarter.

What is SAFAR?

SAFAR is a smart agricultural robot designed to help farmers monitor crops and spray pesticides remotely using a smartphone. Equipped with a live-view camera and wireless controls, SAFAR aims to reduce direct exposure to chemicals, minimize manual labour, and save time.

Apurwa and Kaveri’s achievement is a proud moment for AADHAAR and an inspiration to young learners everywhere to turn their ideas into action.
