As the Powered By Sponsor at APOGEE ’26 at BITS Pilani, MapmyIndia had the opportunity to engage with one of India’s most vibrant student communities through conversations, hackathons, and on-ground app experiences.
The Mappls MapmyIndia stall saw steady engagement throughout the fest, becoming a point of interest for students curious about mapping, navigation, and geospatial technology. Many were not just exploring the Mappls App at a surface level, but were keen to understand how it works, what differentiates it, and where it can be applied in practical, real-world scenarios.
This curiosity also came through strongly in the Mappls Business and Tech Hackathons conducted during the event. Participants approached the problem statements with a compelling mix of creativity, business thinking, and technical depth, with a clear focus on solving real-world use cases.
There was also strong interest in the Mappls Ambassador Program, with students actively engaging to understand how they could contribute at a campus level and work more closely with a platform built in India and for India.
For MapmyIndia, APOGEE ’26 was a valuable opportunity to connect directly with the next generation of innovators, understand their perspectives, and introduce them to the possibilities within the geospatial ecosystem.
As India’s digital and mobility landscape continues to evolve, such interactions remain important in shaping the future of location technology through dialogue, experimentation, and homegrown innovation.
