HACKATHON CHALLENGE & TECHNICAL INFO

🗣️ Pitches


The final decision making will be made in 2 rounds of pitches

<aside> 💡 ROUND 1 at 3:00pm on Saturday

Each team will receive a group number (1-3) and you will pitch in front of the first decision committee of your group. Each decision committee will be composed of mentors from different partners. 6 teams will move on to the final round.

The pitch should be 5 minutes long (that’s very short). Here’s a suggested outline of your first pitch:

  1. One liner of your solution
  2. What's the problem you are solving (business or tech)? How big is this problem?
  3. What have you built during the hackathon? (show us a demo if possible)
  4. Give us a high level overview of underlying tech - why is is innovative?
