The spirit of entrepreneurship aligns closely with India's young demographic - a dynamic segment that is always questioning the status quo, is not risk averse and is always open to challenges. As an institution of eminence, our endeavour was to bring together this group of young minds who share these values and this led to us launching InQube - an initiative to help students transform into promising entrepreneurs." A multifaceted competition, InQube was first held in 2021 and has been specially curated for undergraduate students, to help discover and ignite their entrepreneurship zeal. It began with a preliminary round held online for all registered participants to participate in. Following this, the top 100 teams moved on to the cluster round - an online quiz, post which the top two teams per cluster got selected for the national-level quarter-finals' quiz (held in-person). The top three teams from each of the 12 zones were selected for the national semi-finals and participated in the business case and simulation on campus. Finally, the top six teams from the semi-finals competed in the grand finale, hosted by Venky Srinivasan, CEO and Co-founder, Nexus Consulting. This story has been provided by BusinessWire India.
