VENUE:   Multimedia Theatre, RPS 

CONDUCTED BY:  Commerce Department 

  The Unicorn , the entrepreneurship challenge, was organized and conducted by the commerce department of Rajagiri Public School. 

5 teams comprising of commerce students from Grade XII (2024-25), presented unique start-up ideas. Each team got 3 minutes to present their idea and subsequently took questions from the judges regarding their idea’s feasibility and relevance. 

With the tagline “Stay trendy, stay lucent”, the start up idea presented by Francis George, Roseanne Edwin, Deena Maria Davis and Sahil Wahab bagged the first place. They proposed an app to help its users pick the best outfits from their wardrobe, also suggesting accessories and clothes that might add to the look. 

The second place was bagged by Isheeka Roy, Tania Abey, Teresa Rose Jio and Manjeera M Das, with their data driven presentation and ever so affordable AI based ‘Wishaid’ to aid the visually impaired. 

Other innovative ideas presented included ‘Collaid’ – a one stop destination for all your college needs, ‘Pheonix and Co.’ – a digital marketplace for furniture, and ‘Carta’ – a device with all your textbooks. 

Principal, Mrs Ruby Antony graced the competition with her presence. Students gained the valuable experience of presenting an idea that was completely their own, hearing various other viewpoints and hearing words of wisdom from their teachers. After the session, students and teachers could pick up free personal finance books which were available outside the venue.
