Instructor Reflections
AmirReza Pourakhavan (arpa)
We grow under pressure, and a camp is the place to train under pressure. Every day having contests, post-contest discussions, and lecture sessions creates a high pressure that leads to incredible growth. I also experienced the same situation in the Moscow camp in 2020.
Badal Kumar
This initiative continues to grow as we work towards elevating India's competitive programming ecosystem to world-class levels. This edition had an impressive turnout with: 9 teams qualifying for Asia West Continent Finals (out of 33 total qualifiers).

This camp aims to train the candidates for performing better and get better ranks at ICPC WF by providing necessary exposure and community building. The main aim is to get Gold medals in the near future and I really think this initiative would make that possible.
