The competition engages young adults in the age group of 18 – 28 years pursuing higher education in universities and colleges across the Indo-Pacific region in a multi-stage competition. 524 two-member teams from 16 Indo-Pacific countries competed in the four online preliminary rounds. Thirty-two teams from six countries (India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Indonesia, and Philippines) qualified to enter the four virtual group rounds. Eleven teams from India and 13 from abroad (Indonesia, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh) qualified to participate in the in-person final rounds to be held in Kochi.
