"If you gone come in second, you're just the first loser!"

Tiger Woods

From the time of ancient Romans when gladiators, wild animals, and condemned criminals were forced to mutilate each other with millions of people feasting in their wake; man has always longed the desire to watch a fight. 2200 years on, the players might have changed but the desire still burns outright. The desire to witness greased machines battling it out trying to put it across one another and “Competitions” is a ticket to that extravaganza. So come January and even if you find yourself roaming unfettered around the IIT Bombay campus, we promise you would still be able to sense the heat, the vehemence and the gusto that Competitions bring to Techfest every year. It is this intense scramble for prestige and handsome cash rewards that has bequeathed a legacy of rivalry amongst competing colleges and other tech hobbyists round the country bringing them back here every year.
