What is the student event all about?

Since 2010, Pakistani student teams have regularly participated and competed in Shell Eco-Marathon (SEM) events. But due to the ongoing pandemic, Shell has not held in-person regional and global SEM events in 2020 and 2021. 

However, Pakistani student teams have been working hard on their cars for the competition expected in 2022. Staying in close coordination with industry experts during the hiatus, they have gained valuable advice on building energy-efficient vehicles that can make Pakistan proud on the international stage. 

To encourage and motivate these student teams, Shell Pakistan is holding a student event where the teams can showcase their cars, share the innovative and fuel-efficient designs they have built, and receive advice and guidance from industry experts to gear up for the upcoming regional and global SEM competitions next year.
