01 / THE MISSION

RESOURCE CONSERVATION
& SUSTAINABILITY

A better future
isn’t found.
It’s engineered.

The suit is a symbol.
The mind inside is the difference.

Tech Roulette brings that spirit to the workshop. Take on real sustainability problems, adapt to unexpected constraints, and make a convincing case for your solution.

Assemble a team of 2–3 engineering undergraduates. Team composition is locked at registration, and cross-branch teams are welcome.

You don’t choose
every variable.
You adapt.

In Round 2, your problem statement is only the beginning. Spin for an Innovation Twist that becomes a mandatory part of your prototype.

In the final round, challenge and constraint cards change the equation again. The real test is what you do next.
