As a part of ‘Freedom15’, SPACE is providing an Internship programme as our February event. Even though we had provided internship programmes to engineering students and graduates in the past, it is for the first time SPACE coming with a comprehensive programme and announcing an open call for the same. We are planning to provide internships to at least 15 candidates throughout this year on different technologies we are working on.

Swatantra Treasure Hunt is Officially Finishing today. We had 1067 users registered for this hunt and they in total made 1,02,525 attempts so far. It is definitely a great success from our perspective and thanks to all participants who made this hunt successfull.

As you may already know , rather than introducing 'SwatantraHunt' merely as a promotional event for Swatantra2017, we presented it as an alternative and interesting way of acquiring free software related knowledge. Our questions and clues are directly or indirectly intended you to search through terms , stories & individuals in the free software world and finding meaningful relationships among them inorder to solve the problem in hand. It will be right to mention here that some of your performances even broke our calculations and expectations. Hope 'SwatantraHunt' helped you  to gain some free software related knowledge.

With the end of techie section competition of Swatantra Treasure Hunt, We had Nikhil Markandeya From SSGI , Ragesh V from Infosys & Tushar Gupta from HP as our first,second and third prize winners respectively. About 30plus players competed for the prizes and their active involvement for the past three days helped us to cross the 1lakh total attempts mark. Special Congratz to the winners from the space team and 10 consistent players from this section will also be selected for the complimentary prizes. Thank you  all the participants and definitely you made it successfull.

After completing the student category competition on 27th Novemer 2017 , we had our winners. Amaljith, from College of Engineering Trivandrum won the first prize . Sourabh , from IISc banglore comes second. Arun Raj from GCE Kannur won the third prize. We verified the answers by contacting the prize winners over phone and informed our congratz.

We have 2 more break point winners today. 'Sourabh' from IISc became the 4th break point winner from the student category.He solved the question soon after its first clue release. It will be a tough competition for other students right now. We got our 5th and final break point winner from Techie/others category just some minutes after the first clue was released. 'Ragesh V' from Infosys broke the 23rd question (final break point question) and congratz to both 'Sourabh' & 'Ragesh V' from the space team.
