GENESIS 2025-Annual Fest 2025
Introducing Genesis 2025: A New Era Begins at DBS Global University
Dehradun, April 5, 2025 — We are thrilled to announce Genesis 2025, the inaugural All India Inter-University Festival under the banner of the newly launched DBS Global University.
More than just a name change, this transformation marks the beginning of a bold new chapter—one that extends beyond business, into a multidisciplinary celebration of talent, innovation, and creativity. And leading this charge is Genesis 2025 — a reimagined, larger-than-life version of our iconic fest Manfest, which was once the flagship management event of DBS.
From Manfest to Genesis — Bigger, Grander, Global
Genesis 2025 isn’t just a festival; it’s a nationwide movement of minds. Spanning four power-packed days from April 16–19, it invites students from universities across India to compete, collaborate, and celebrate in a vibrant atmosphere that blends competition with culture, innovation, and entertainment.
With a cash prize pool of ₹8 Lakhs, this is your chance to shine on a truly national stage.
A Celebration of Talent Across Disciplines
At the heart of Genesis 2025 lies a diverse array of competitions and experiences, each thoughtfully curated to engage, challenge, and celebrate the multifaceted talents of university students from across the country. Designed to go beyond the conventional idea of a college fest, Genesis brings together four distinct zones—each a world of its own—where intellect, creativity, skill, and innovation come alive.
The Management Arena: Manfest 2.0
Carrying forward the legacy of Doon Business School’s original flagship event, Manfest returns in a new avatar. This is where future leaders and entrepreneurs test their mettle. Participants will engage in live case-solving competitions, investment simulations, business quizzes, elevator pitches, and strategic HR challenges. With a real-world approach to management education, this space is designed to bring out strategic thinking, innovation, and persuasive communication.
The Sports Ground: Doon Premier League (DPL)
Athleticism meets teamwork in the highly anticipated DPL. Genesis 2025 invites spirited competition in a range of sports including basketball, football, volleyball, table tennis, and even 8-ball pool. Whether it’s a high-stakes match or a test of focus and precision, these games provide a platform for sportsmanship, discipline, and team dynamics.
The Cultural Arena: Cult-Fest
Genesis wouldn’t be complete without a celebration of the arts. Cult-Fest is where expression takes center stage. From electrifying group dances and fashion showcases to thought-provoking street plays and live band battles, the cultural segment is a vibrant ode to creativity and storytelling. For those with a visual flair, a graffiti competition invites artists to make the walls speak with color and meaning.
The Tech Hub: Tech-Fest
In a world increasingly driven by technology, Tech-Fest offers a space for coders, creators, and gamers to shine. From intense coding challenges and robotics showdowns to competitive mobile gaming in BGMI and high-speed NFS races, the tech zone merges innovation with adrenaline. The fest also features a high-energy EDM night—blending digital artistry with immersive experience.
These carefully curated segments aren’t just competitions; they are avenues for growth, discovery, and collaboration. Whether you're a budding entrepreneur, a passionate performer, a dedicated athlete, or a tech enthusiast, Genesis 2025 offers a platform where your passion meets purpose.
