Commenting on the launch, Gaurav Goel, CEO & Founder, Samagra said, “There is a strong need to get the best minds in the country to engage with the most complex challenges facing our country. While corporate case studies are ubiquitous in business schools, the social impact ecosystem sensed the need for creating a governance case competition that gives students in both business and policy schools an opportunity to solve very real governance problems. The Governance Challenge is a step in that direction.”

The competition will have three rounds, namely ‘Campus round’, ‘Nationals round’ and ‘The Summit round’. Participating teams will be provided with the required support through all the rounds, with respect to reference materials, buddies for feedback, mentorship and so on, to devise game-changing solutions. 

Registration closes on 29th July, 11:59 PM. Students can register on Unstop:  https://bit.ly/TheGovernanceChallenge
