The most interesting fact about Team Kaizen is the working environment. After a long day of work, to cheer up the team, we organise gaming sessions and movie nights for our team bonding, which, in the long run, keeps the motivation and enthusiasm up.

[Team Member]
We, too, have worked on several ideas including generating electricity from water droplets to smoke treatment systems at chimneys. But, to sum them all up, it all boils down to using technology to harvest energy from cleaner unconventional resources.

One crucial thing that we learned from Pitch the Future is the adaptability to change. At first, our team's aim was to build a highly efficient electric vehicle but, since, life is unpredictable so we need to adapt to new changes.
