Background
The Grand Challenges program is a unique innovation program of the Department of Electronics, IT, BT and S&T under Karnataka Start-up Policy 2015-2020.

The problem statement is then refined and thrown open for startups, innovators and individuals to propose potential solutions to the problem.

Focus sectors include Urban Development, Health Care, Food Security, Clean Environment and Education for all, etc.

For current call, Dept. of IT, BT and S&T has collaborated with Directorate of Urban Land Transport (DULT) for rolling out Karnataka State Mobility Grand Challenges with focus on urban mobility.
