The event is designed to challenge participants’ analytical thinking, observation skills, creativity, and teamwork through a blend of knowledge-based and creative tasks. It aims to provide a fun yet intellectually stimulating platform where participants can test their general awareness, recall ability,
and imaginative skills. The competition unfolds over two distinct stages ,the Filtration Round and the Final Round each crafted to assess different cognitive and creative dimensions of the participants. As teams progress, the complexity and originality of the tasks increase, encouraging both logical
precision and artistic innovation.
Round 1: Filtration Round
The Filtration Round acts as the qualifying stage, designed to test the participants’ awareness, observation, and quick-thinking abilities. It consists of three sub-rounds, each focusing on a specific area of recognition and knowledge recall.
1. Who is the CEO?
Participants will be given the name of a company along with one of its popular products. Based on this information, they must correctly identify the current CEO of that company. This sub-round evaluates participants’ corporate awareness, business updates, and memory retention regarding global enterprises and their leaders.
2. What Did He Run?
In this sub-round, participants will be presented with the image of a CEO, accompanied by pictures of products that are associated with the company he or she leads. Using these visual cues, participants must correctly identify the company managed by the CEO. This task emphasizes visual recognition and logical deduction, challenging participants to draw accurate connections between an individual’s identity and their organization. It encourages attentiveness, analytical reasoning, and a keen understanding of the global business landscape.
3. Who is the Wielder?
In this sub-round, participants will encounter images of iconic weapons belonging to popular superheroes from renowned franchises such as Marvel, DC, and others. Their task is to identify the weapon and, where applicable, name its rightful wielder. This segment introduces a creative and pop-culture-inspired twist, testing participants’ visual memory, association skills, and familiarity with superhero universes. It aims to blend entertainment with knowledge, providing a refreshing and engaging experience that broadens the scope of the competition beyond traditional quiz formats.

Round 2: Final Round
The Final Round transitions from factual recall to creative problem-solving and artistic expression. It emphasizes teamwork, memory accuracy, and imaginative thinking. The finalists will participate in two tasks that test both mental retention and innovation.
1. Origami Challenge
In this sub-round, participants will be provided with sheets of paper and shown a demonstration of a specific origami design. The demonstration will be displayed only a limited number of times, after which participants must recreate the origami model purely from memory. This task is designed to test the team’s concentration, observation, precision, and step-by-step recall ability under time constraints. It encourages attention to detail and memory retention, while also highlighting teamwork and coordination. The creations will be evaluated based on accuracy, neatness, and
completeness of the final origami piece.
2. Emoji Combiner Drawing
In this sub-round, participants will be provided with a set of emojis and will be tasked with combining them into a single creative drawing. The illustration must conceptually represent the essence or meaning conveyed by the given emojis, blending multiple visual ideas into one cohesive artwork. This activity encourages imaginative thinking, concept visualization, and artistic expression. It aims to assess participants’ creativity in interpreting abstract ideas and translating them into an original and visually appealing design.
