Cross-Border · Multi-City · Future-Ready Hackathon
Built for founders who don’t just want a prize — they want to build what’s next.

We’re not giving you narrow problem statements. We’re giving you a launchpad: open, bold, and built for ambition.

No fluffy tracks. No token coding. Just fearless ideas, working prototypes, and teams ready to redefine what a startup can be.

If you’re done pitching projects and ready to create companies, this is your stage.

So, if you want to build tinder for 70-year-olds or even a voice translation for your dog - welcome :D

Also! Everyone gets Lovable credits, so even if you can’t code — you can still ship something your ex would invest in ;D

Spots are limited. Ambition is not.
And if you come out victorious — it’s USD 1,000 for the winner :)

Judging Criteria

  • Creativity & Originality
    You’re not here to build the same old thing. Show us a fresh idea, a new angle, or something that surprises. If you made people stop and say “Huh, I didn’t see that coming”, you’re on the right track.
  • Execution & Realization
    Idea done is nothing. Idea brought to life is everything. Whether you coded it, prototyped it, used no-code, or just mocked it out — we care that you made it real. Clean, usable, show-and-tellable. You envisioned it, you built the vibe.
  • Experience & Impact
    How does your thing make someone feel? Fun, useful, meaningful, weird in a good way? We’re looking for something people want to use — something that could actually leave a mark. Don’t just build tech. Build a moment.
