Round 1: Breakthrough Blitz

Each participant will receive a file containing business dilemmas. Their task is to effectively address these challenges and present their solutions in the format of a 2-slide PowerPoint presentation. Participants will have to use their problem-solving and creativity skills to come up with unique solutions to different business problems.

Round 2: The Boardroom

In this round of the competition, selected participants will be invited to IIT Madras for an offline round. Here, they will leverage their communication and collaboration skills to address a provided case study. Following the second round, shortlisted participants will be assigned random roles as board members. Engaging in a boardroom simulation, each participant will present their perspectives on the case study within a one-minute timeframe based on their designated role. Following individual presentations, a 15-minute cross-questioning session will take place. Subsequently, participants must collaboratively formulate a resolution within the allotted time, with each participant granted an additional minute to enhance and present their resolution to the judges. This challenge requires participants to don their thinking hats and devise the optimal resolution collectively.
