MinSU IT students wins at the Regional Ideathon Pitching Competition 2025

Students from the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology of the Mindoro State University showcased its growing strength in innovation and technology as they earned recognitions at the Ideathon Pitching Competition 2025.

Students from the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) program of Mindoro State University (MinSU) earned major recognitions at the Ideathon Pitching Competition 2025, affirming the University’s rising strength in innovation and emerging technologies.

The event, held on November 21, 2025 at Divine Word College of Calapan as part of the 7th MIMAROPA Regional IT Congress, brought together 21 participating schools from across the region. The competition challenged students to design and pitch blockchain-based solutions addressing real-world problems.

Team MinSU impressed judges with ItLogs, a blockchain-enabled egg traceability system designed to ensure transparency, safety, and consumer trust in local food supply chains.

With ItLogs, consumers can simply scan an egg’s producer ID to trace its journey from farm to table. The system integrates egg sorting machines, inkjet labeling, and Hyperledger Fabric blockchain technology to deliver tamper-proof data, verify freshness, and authenticate farm sources.

Designed not only to promote food safety, ItLogs aims to empower small-scale farmers, promote fair pricing, and support the growth of resilient community-based food systems.

The winning team is composed of Keizy A. Aala, Jasmine M. Haplos and Johnzeal O. Malaluan.

In addition, MinSU secured 2nd Runner-Up finish with FrozMart, a digital platform designed to modernize the frozen goods market.

FrozMart streamlines operations for vendors, admins, and slaughterhouses by integrating sales, inventory, and daily transactions into one smart system. Powered by blockchain, the platform ensures every transaction is transparent, traceable, and tamper-proof - enhancing safety, accountability, and consumer confidence.

These projects were guided and mentored by Engr. Jake C. Siscar, Dr. Cirile Dominic A. Horlador and Dean John Edgar S. Anthony.

These achievements underscore MinSU’s dedication to cultivating future-ready IT professionals capable of addressing emerging challenges through creativity, research, and advanced technology.
