"The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos." -Napoleon Bonaparte

< Showcase Dais

Stakes are high, the pressure is on, time is running out and you must take a call. The battlefield is the boardroom and the warriors are corporate heads. Competition is immense, the resources are limited and the environment is of uncertainty and chaos. Only those with foresight, the ability to plan strategically and adapt quickly will survive.

Wizards of Biz, the showcase event of Intaglio, is the ultimate test of one's business wizardry. Wizards of Biz tests participants over multiple online rounds including a real time simulation of an industry. Those who clear these hurdles are further put to test in the on-campus finals involving exciting business challenges where near-faultless decision making and strategic thinking are prerequisites to survive. The final round is designed to match a high pressure boardroom battle where the participants don the hats of the top level management and take each other head on.

Welcome to the Boardroom Battle!
