Pentagon Events & Activations, an experiential agency, collaborated with HP India to deliver Dreams Unlocked – Season 1, a nationwide initiative aimed at supporting students with mentorship, guidance, and practical tools to help them pursue their goals.
From multi-city coordination to the final event in Mumbai, Pentagon Events oversaw all aspects of the program’s production — including venue planning, stage setup, audience management, content scheduling, and artist coordination. The agency worked closely with HP India and IFP to ensure a consistent experience at every stage, from student engagement activities to the closing celebration.
The programme formally kicked off with entries opening on 25 July 2025 and closing on 30 September 2025. Students between the ages of 18and 28, enrolled in recognized institutions across India, were invited to submit original ideas in video, written, or slideshow formats.
Out of thousands of submissions, 500 participants were awarded HP × Real Madrid merchandise, 200 were invited to the event in Mumbai, 40 finalists received an HP AI PC and were invited to a dedicated summit, and 8 winners (one per category) earned a 1:1 mentorship session with an industry expert.
The closing ceremony was attended by the Hon’ble Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Mr. Devendra Fadnavis, and Ms. Ipshita Dasgupta, Managing Director of HP India, who interacted with students and shared their thoughts on perseverance and purpose.
The event concluded with a live performance by artist Raftaar, marking the end of the first season on an energetic note.
