The Grand Finale of the Hult Prize 2022 at TBC
The final event of the Hult Prize at The British College was conducted on 13th March 2022 in The British College conference hall.
The event began with a warm welcome from the hosts, Mr Nishan Shrestha and Ms Sudeepa Bajracharya. Mr Sagar Rana and Ms Aashma Tamang then performed a beautiful song, before Sumnima Rajbansi led a group dance as a welcome gesture to the judges, participants, and audience present at the event. The final performance was from the amazing magician, Mr Pratham Oli - who performed a mind-blowing act which surprised the whole crowd.
Each team then pitched their ideas to a panel of judges, and the Q&A session turned out to be very interactive and influencing. A lucky draw announcement was also made around the end, and lucky number 286 was announced as the winner.
As the event was approaching its end, the team “Revolution” with their project “Sarog”, representing upcycle services, was announced as the On-campus winner of the Hult Prize 2022.
The winners were invited onto the stage and all team leaders from the seven final teams were asked to share their experiences.
