Dare2Compete aggregates information about competitions, internships, jobs, quizzes, and hackathons.
There’s healthy participation from E-School and B-School students from all over the country.
Dare2Compete works on the platform business model, it provides you the ability to host event for free and only charges a fee when you promote an event.

The Problem

The platform has a loyal audience that regularly keeps checking the event catalog for new events and competitions. There was a visible uptick in the number of new remote events during the COVID-19 imposed lockdown. A friend and I decided that Dare2Compete would be the best way to host our ’The Office’ themed quiz. We soon realized that individuals aren’t allowed to host events on the website. You need to have an incorporated company to host one.

The Solution

The answer was obvious — fake a company. They needed an incorporated company with a valid website and a logo. In the end we came up with this - BuzzFloss Quizzing LLP.

Designing a logo, writing content, getting photos, making, and hosting a webpage took under 30 mins. Surprisingly, the longest task was coming up with an obviously fake name.

In the end, we were able to get an event page for our quiz on Dare2Compete. We never got around to making questions and hosting the quiz though.

If anyone reading this is in a similar situation, send me a mail, I’m available and will be happy to help you set up a fake company.
