About Challenge
All ideas start with a spark. Some ideas are small and simple, others are big and bold. But all good ideas have one thing in common – the potential to bring about change. #imaginethat
Do you have an idea that solves a problem, offers a better way of doing something, or paves a path to happiness? Then bring it to Tata Imagination Challenge.
