Additionally, the Innovative Projects Village track allows participants to design creative products influenced by global cultures. They will explore logo design, color selection, and product development strategies, including entrepreneurial skills like pricing, marketing, and advertising. The camp will culminate in the ‘Art Projects Expo,’ where participants will showcase their projects to a specialized jury for evaluation and awards.
