Mr. Harjeet Kakkar, visionary leader and entrepreneur is the brain behind
Cryptics. Founder and promoter of various successful IT startups, he
is the CEO of Vydehi School of excellence. His vision to integrate cutting
edge Information technology into the school curriculum led to the
conceptualizing of Cryptics, a platform where students come together,
learn, compete and prepare themselves to face the challenges of the
future. Cryptics, currently a Karnataka state level competition is
envisioned to be a pan India event by the year 2020-21
Vydehi School of Excellence founded by the late Dr. D. K. Audikesavulu Naidu, with the aim to provide holistic education at par with international standards. The motto of our school “ Knowledge is Supreme Power” caters our vision of lighting a lamp of knowledge that illuminates the world with its wisdom, while creating a knowledge pool that will never dry.
Cryptics, an Information Technology Challenge is an endeavour from Vydehi School of Excellence which is being piloted this year involving schools across major cities in Karnataka. With the ever-changing technological scenario, the next decade will see IT affecting almost all aspects of our lives. With skills getting redundant every couple of years, the need to generate awareness and fascination for computers, in students becomes much more profound.
The Quiz is designed to hone the intrinsic and latent abilities in pupils and demonstrate their talents while competing with peers in schools across the state. Our aim is to develop this platform and provide students with an environment that constantly challenges them to learn more and kindle the spirit of healthy competition amongst the impressionable young minds.
