MasterPlan: India's Largest Business Plan Competition

Acknowledged as the largest corporate business plan competition of its kind in India, MasterPlan is here again in a new avatar. The flagship business plan competition was launched on October 10th in association with Reliance Industries Limited. This competition has always attracted participation from the best managerial talent across the world. In addition to the total prize money of US $ 12,000, the involvement of top-notch professionals in academia and industry have made this event a coveted launching pad for aspiring managers.

MasterPlan provides participants an ideal forum to run their own show by scanning favorable business opportunities under constraints, brainstorming to generate and evaluate options, and finally devising a strategy providing the perfect balance between risks and returns. In this year's edition, contestants have to submit a plan based on one of the 6 sector themes by October 28th. The entries will be evaluated by the event knowledge partner, KPMG and the top teams will be flown down to Ahmedabad for a final presentation during Confluence.
