Each round was designed to challenge and inspire, the event tested participants’ problem-solving skills in ways never seen before.

Next came the Consulting Cricket round, an innovative twist where teams "bowled" industry-specific questions at their competitors, proving their business acumen. The final stretch featured StrateDice, a consulting-themed monopoly, followed by a reverse case-solving and group discussion round. The grand finale? A deep dive into the Quick Commerce industry, where finalists presented structured solutions to complex real-world challenges.
