Правка en9, от Queue, 2025-01-28 21:08:09

Greetings, Codeforces Community!

We are thrilled to invite you to CodeFest, a premier competitive programming event brought to you by IICPC, co-sponsored by Citadel, with more amazing sponsors like Jump Trading, Jane Street, Hudson River Trading (HRT), Landeed, and QuantInsti.

The camp is being hosted by the 8 IITs namely Madras, Delhi, Bombay, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kharagpur, Roorkee and Indore and we are grateful for the same!

Inspiration

In late 2024, Ayush and I were wondering what could be done next to improve the Competitive Programming Culture around us. That is when we realised that India is very short of good quality competitive programming contests. The last India specific large contest we had was CodeChef Snackdown which was unfortunately discontinued.

With an aim to have more exciting and enriching contests in India, we decided to host CodeFest, and we are very happy that we along with the team are here today to invite you for the same.

Details

Codefest is a 3 stage Individual Contest:

  • Stage 1 (Prelims) : To be held on Codechef on 12th February 8pm IST
  • Stage 2 (Offline Regionals) : 2 Multisite Regionals to be held across 8 IITs.
  • Stage 3 (Grand Finale) : To be held in Research Park IIT Madras on 5th and 6th April 2025.

Note : Accomodation for Regionals would have to be managed. For Grand Finale, we have booked good accomodation for all the finalist. We recommend you to pick your closest Regional Center as preference in the registeration form.

Qualification

There are 400 slots in the Regionals and 50 for the Finals.

  • (Prelims to Regionals Qualification) : In the CodeChef Contest, all divisions will have all problems. Top 400 over the aggregate ranklist will move on to the Offline Regionals.
  • (Regionals to Finale Qualification) : Top 25 participants from each of the 2 regionals will move on the the Grand Finale.

Goodies and Prizes

We want to make this event very memorable for each and every participant so we have decided to have the following prizes:

  • 1st Prize: ₹1,00,000
  • 2nd Prize: ₹75,000
  • 3rd Prize: ₹50,000
  • 4th Prize: ₹25,000
  • 5th — 10th Prize: ₹10,000
  • Finalist Medals, Tshirts, Goodie Bags and Certificates for all 50 Finalists
  • Regionalist Tshirts, Goodie Bags and Certificates for all Regionalists
  • Trophies for the top performer at Regional Center during Regionals.
  • Trophies for the top 3 winners in the Grand Finals.
  • 2 Quant Courses worth ₹2,00,000 each to be given away.

About the Sponsors

None of this would have been possible without the support of sponsors. Some of the sponsors would be coming to the Grand Finale to hire for their organisation. (Win prize money and get hired orz). About them:
