T-Summit 2008 is a celebration of technology based entrepreneurship. The aim of the event is to make engineering and applied science students cognizant of the opportunities in entrepreneurship.

The T-Summit Team, with support from EDC, wishes to remove the myths surrounding entrepreneurship, and make technology students consider it as a career choice. This event also aims at making the student participants aware of intrapreneurship, and concentrates on the development of such skills in an individual.

The first 2 days of T-Summit 2007 bring together the best engineering and applied science brains to Hyderabad, and pit them against each other in a myriad of events designed to test their entrepreneurial abilities, as below:

They are allowed to choose any two media among newspapers, pamphlets, SMS, hoardings and banners. Every medium of the advertisement has its own restrictions.

Future Perfect
This round is to test the participant's innovativeness, business acumen and marketing skills. Within the given time frame, he needs to explain the futuristic role of the product, its feasibility and the marketing strategy required.

The Acid Test

Ad Round
Things that sell: humor, 1 paise messaging cards, and First Day movie tickets. The participant's job will be to advertise the stuff coming under the second category.

Stock-a-bloc
The Stock Market is an impossible, almost unjust place to be in; on the other hand, it's a second home to the entrepreneur. Knowing entry into and exit from the stock market will separate our entrepreneurs from the rest.

Sauda - The Real Time Market
It's the ultimate battle between the buyer and the seller, each one looking out for his own, and the ultimate survivor will be deemed fit to receive the highest accolade in the quest for entrepreneurial perfection.

Chanakya
The quiz with a difference! Chanakya not only tests one's general knowledge, but also agility, perception and vividness to tackle situations. The event comprises of three rounds:

Pariksha - The Written Test

Arthashashtra Revised

Chanakya - The Quiz
This is the final part, with 4 teams clashing in a series of rounds. Questions on current affairs, general knowldge on world business and trade are the primary ones asked in this round.

iDeate
This is designed to help technopreneurs (anyone with an innovative technological concept, idea or plan of a new product or process is a technopreneur) communicate and organize their concepts... a critical step towards future success. This event has three rounds - The Elevator Pitch (a 2-minute presentation), Rap Session and The Board Room.
