The Pune edition marked the ninth stop of the WISE Tech India Pitchathon 2026, organised by SPJIMR WISE Tech in collaboration with the Symbiosis Centre for Entrepreneurship & Innovation (SCEI) and Maharashtra State Innovation Society (MSInS).
This sector-agnostic edition brought together early-stage start-ups developing practical, high-impact innovations across diverse sectors. Participating founders showcased solutions to real-world challenges through scalable, market-ready products and services.
