The DST, under its National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber-Physical Systems (NM-ICPS), has funded IIT Bhilai to host the TIH for the FinTech domain.

Entrepreneurs need strong support and an advisory system in order to turn their start-up ideas into valuable businesses. As a part of the activities at IBITF, one of the ambitions is to establish a strong support system for entrepreneurship and start-ups in the Fintech arena.

The Identification of problem areas is what differentiates the GCC from other hackathons or challenges conducted by educational institutions.
