Team Devhubs, also known as Team Open Innovation, is a group of engineering students determined to fix a problem they’ve all faced firsthand — the disconnect between classroom theory and industry reality. Their mission is to empower the next generation of developers to gain real-world, production-level experience long before graduation.
Devhubs is their answer: a platform created by developers, for developers — one that transforms how computer science students learn, collaborate, and grow. By merging education with actual industry practices, the team aims to turn academic learning into actionable, portfolio-worthy experience.
What are they building
Devhubs is an open innovation ecosystem and developer collaboration platform where students can earn, collaborate, and evolve through hands-on, industry-inspired projects. Rather than focusing on theory or closed lab work, the platform creates an immersive learning environment where aspiring developers can:
Work on industry-style projects aligned with real-world requirements.
Collaborate in teams using standard development workflows and best practices.
Build verifiable portfolios that demonstrate technical ability and collaboration skills.
Within Devhubs, learning becomes experiential — students write real code, use professional tools, manage sprints, and ship results. It’s an end-to-end simulation of how modern software teams operate.

Why are they building or to solve what?
The founders of Devhubs observed a persistent challenge in the education-to-employment pipeline: students graduate with knowledge, but not experience. Classroom assignments and theoretical labs rarely mirror the realities of production-grade development.
To address this, the team designed Devhubs as a practical bridge between academia and industry. The platform immerses learners in real-world software workflows — from Git-based version control and sprint planning to client communication and continuous deployment.
Here, students don’t just learn; they build, collaborate, and iterate—just like professional developers.
By emphasizing team-based development and open contribution, Devhubs cultivates confidence, adaptability, and problem-solving skills that go far beyond textbooks.
At its heart, Devhubs isn’t just an educational tool—it’s a professional playground that blends learning with creation, empowering students to become self-driven, job-ready innovators.
Scope
Devhubs envisions becoming India’s largest open innovation workspace for student developers—a thriving ecosystem where technical learning seamlessly connects with industry practice.
The platform introduces a project bidding model, enabling students to join collaborative projects, contribute code, and build transparent records of their work. This system allows students to prove their abilities through measurable outcomes, not just certificates or grades.
In the long term, Devhubs aims to evolve into a verified skill-network that links academia, startups, and enterprises. Companies will be able to discover and hire talent based on real contributions instead of resumes, ensuring a more merit-driven and transparent hiring process.
Beyond recruitment, Devhubs fosters a community of continuous learning, where mentorship, teamwork, and peer-led innovation drive professional growth.
More than a platform, Devhubs is a movement — one that empowers young developers to learn by doing, collaborate without boundaries, and innovate fearlessly.
Team Devhubs dreams of a national network where every student has the tools, team, and opportunities to become an industry-ready developer — bridging the gap between learning and earning through the power of open innovation.
