With this, Rajasthan aims to make its mark as a favoured destination for technological innovations, skill development, and start-up drive.
The fest brought together a large exhibition and a marketplace of products and services by the state's start-ups at one common platform. Over 80 start-ups from across the state, recognised by Rajasthan's flagship platform iStart, showcased their innovation and ideas at the fest.
