Invictas is an exciting business simulation game for first-year students of select B-school campuses in India to stand out and make #TheBestMoveForward. Winners secure TAS Summer Internship opportunities and cash prizes. #EmergeVictorious

Invictas is a general management business simulation game on InsideIIM, introduced by TAS – the Tata group’s flagship leadership programme. The competition is open to first-year students of 14 B-school campuses from where TAS usually recruits (see eligibility criteria below).

In Invictas, the participant is placed right at the centre of a simulated business environment to navigate the high-stakes world of launching and managing a new business project within the Tata group.

They will act as managers, understand the interplay of different functions, and take business decisions. Participants are expected to apply and demonstrate their business acumen and leadership skills to make the project a commercial success.

The fun-filled journey leads to exciting prizes for winners, including interview opportunities for the highly coveted TAS Summer Internship programme!
