NitiQuest Story
Imagine a place where big dreams aren’t just thought about - they’re built, tested, pitched, funded, and launched.
That’s NitiQuest - born from a simple question: What if every student could experience what it’s really like to think like a strategist and act like a founder? At its core, NitiQuest is more than a competition - it’s a movement designed for curious minds and bold creators.
Niti represents strategy, policy, and the wisdom of making the right move at the right moment. Quest represents the journey - of discovery, resilience, and growth. We blend the thrill of a national startup challenge with real-world pathways into funding, internships, and careers. From campus pitches to grand finales, from strategic mentoring to industry immersion - this is where learning meets doing.
Our Vision
To ignite a generation of future leaders who can think strategically, act fearlessly, and build impact-driven ventures.
Our Mission
To create a national ecosystem that empowers management and engineering students to validate ideas, test strategies, win funding, and unlock career accelerators — all while having fun and making an impact.
Our Goal
To bridge the gap between classroom knowledge and real-world outcomes, ensuring every student leaves with experience, confidence, and opportunities that matter.
