They had to name the entrepreneur and give a brief description of that person’s journey to become successful.

 

Out of these four teams, two topmost teams qualified for second round, “solving the jumbled words”. There were five jumbled words related to entrepreneurship for each team and 45 seconds were given to them for solving each word. These jumbled words were related to entrepreneurial traits and the coordinators emphasized on the importance of these words by the role that they play in making up of a successful businesses. Both the teams scored same points in this round and finally in the tie breaker round one team won the quiz. The winning team was rewarded with goodies.
