Unlike one-off ideathons or hackathons, Plan-C focuses on creating a safe, collaborative environment where aspiring founders can share, refine, and pitch their startup ideas across three progressive stages within a semester.

Plan-C is conducted thrice per semester, with each session building on the last:

1. Chapter 1 – The Spark Activities: Idea-sharing, roundtable discussions, open critique, guest founder talks.
2. Chapter 2 – Elevator Pitch Night Closed-door session for participants. Students present a 60-second elevator pitch simulating real investor scenarios.Feedback from peers and invited mentors.
3. Chapter 3 – Pitchdeck Showcase Formal pitching session in front of judges and invited VCs. Opportunity for teams to network and get noticed for potential incubation.
