CodeSpark 2025 Hackathon Concludes At KBN College
The KLU VC pointed out that over 80 hackathons are organised across India every year. Their purpose is not merely overnight coding, but laying the blueprint for a stronger future.

VIJAYAWADA: India, with its vast knowledge base, rapid strides in technology, and youthful energy, is on the way of emerging as the global hub of innovation, said KL University (KLU) vice chancellor Prof. G.P. Saradhi Varma.
Addressing the valedictory of the 24-hour non-stop CodeSpark 2025 hackathon at KBN College in Vijayawada on Saturday, Prof. Varma observed that industries are not created overnight, nor do they descend from heavens as rare gifts.
“They take shape from the ideas of youth. What begins as a small thought today could transform into a major industry tomorrow,” he remarked, urging students to sharpen their skills for withstanding competition at the global level.
