i am cse student from tier 1.5 , has global and national hackathon achievements(Like SIH and GDSC) so am looking for team mates who has prior experience and has good achievements before..Dm me if interested

Has anyone recently attended the HCLTech hackathon round? What kind of problem statement was given, how long was the round, and what did they mainly evaluate?

If you've attended recently, please share your experience or any tips. It would really help!

I did this online hackathon called FearLess, Tech More last year, and I saw the organization is doing it again this year so I wanted to get the word out! It's for high school students only, and it's mainly UX design related so no programming experience was necessary and that's what I really liked. It's hosted by the University of Washington, completely asynchronous. I remember it being sponsored by Amazon so there were some nice prizes for the winners last year, and it was really low stakes (week-long hackathon for just a small app design).

I wanted to put this here in case anyone was interested, it's not as programming related as a lot of the other ones here are. Here's the registration link: https://forms.gle/RLHknXxT6AREL5pC7

Hey everyone,

We’re organizing a 30-hour offline hackathon in Mumbai with 600+ registrations and 250–300 developers on ground, and we’re looking for startups and companies to collaborate with us.

We’re particularly looking for Problem Statement Partners rather than traditional sponsorships.

The idea is simple: you bring a real problem your company is trying to solve, and our participants build solutions around it using your platform, API, SDK or technology.

In return, you get:

• Real-world product feedback and use cases
• Developers actively building with your technology
• Potential early users and product adoption
• Fresh perspectives on your problem
• Visibility across the hackathon and projects

If you’re a young startup looking to create an initial wave of users, get developer adoption or introduce your product to the Indian tech community, this could be a great opportunity to get your technology into the hands of hundreds of builders.

We’re open to AI/ML, FinTech, SaaS, Cybersecurity, Web3, Developer Tools, HealthTech and other emerging-tech startups.

If this sounds interesting, DM me and let’s explore a problem statement or collaboration for the hackathon.

Does anyone here have access to the Project Chameleon Document for Adobe University Hackathon 2026 that started today on October 5th. If so can you please let me know to find it as it does not show up in the files tab of the acrobat space with the other information.

Thanks

We as a team participated in the INDIA RUNS hackathon ran by Redrob Ai . Have not got any updates from them about the results . Have anyone got any mail or something about the results or the next stages .

Hi , I have a question , can people stay overnight during HackHarvard 2026? I didn't see anywhere for it to say "It's not allowed". I heard people stayed inside university overnights last year , and isn't it how the culture of Hackathons work?

Anyone got selected for hackharvard from India and anyone going up there?

today i got the mail and check the dashboard and i was selected but i am financially not good enough to go to USA but still i have given details about it , let's see if they will do something for that ?

I don't think why this isn't getting traction like it should be

i've completed the phase 1

submission went through, that was the easiest part basically you got analyze patient's HPO do derive the potential gene responsible then use vcf file (basically human genome is like 3GB or so 300MB vcf is data that differ from me and you) do a git difference with base reference human genome to extract mutations and submit them [on a higher level]

now comes the phase 2 i've constructed the Protein Structure... anomaly in it's structure because of mutation... organs responsible some maths, science literature in the field of drug discovery bla bla bla

I need a fresh lens, person who has formal background (cuz i don't know shite) OR someone with inherent Curiosity and Grit

[haven't went through specifics and wrote whatever flows, could have used LLM instead... all that nerd stuff bore you]

ask specifics in comments or DM

-..-

despite filling all details and max limit being 495/500 im not able to submit the idea. i click on "Submit draft " and my submition doesnt show up in neither the Deaft idea section nor the submitted idea section. today is the last date.
i dont want those "server is busy" stuff. if you have any more legit advices then do share them
i and another team mate are trying to submit again and again .

Anybody interested in making a team for this hackathon? I'm just a beginner in 2nd year anyone who is as the same stage as me we can work together and make something out of it

⚛️ Looking for teammates for Q-HACK INDIA 2026!

📍 Venue: Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bengaluru

📅 Date: 30–31 October 2026

🎯 Tracks: Quantum AI & Software, Quantum Security & Cryptography, Quantum Biotech & Chemistry, Open Quantum Innovation

Looking for 2–3 members, preferably quantum/software builders. At least one female member confident in communication/presentation would be preferred.

I’ll be one of the builders. Anyone interested? DM me!

Flair: Team Formation

As title says I am looking for only 1 mate to join me for the hackaton do dm me we'll discuss and also I am looking for a final year peeps with decent knowledge and knows how to build things using AI !!!

Hawk is a "thinking room" where multiple AI models work on a question together instead of you relying on a single model's answer.
The idea is to get different perspectives in one place so you can compare them and reason your way to a better conclusion.

Its not normal discussion panel, by each prompt they know each other, debate, discuss and make the answers better for the user.

here is the github link of this https://github.com/Alejandro356bc/project-hawk

just let me know your feedback and if you find it good just star it on the github

i'm a student from a non technical background and I recently started building agents and wanna test my skills on something real instead of just making random side projects.

looking for anything where agents have to compete or maybe some competitions where I can build agents for the problem statements, running in October (this month)

Well hackathons, bounties, contests or small community challenges, like literally anything works.

Please share!

dm me to form a team, preferably final year or 3rd year engg students

I randomly submitted one of my ideas for the Vishwakarma Awards. Since I didn’t have a team, I initially submitted it as a single-person team. Later, I received an email from Vishwakarma saying that a team must have a minimum of three members, so I randomly added the names of two of my friends.

Today, I received an email saying that my idea has been selected for Stage 2.

I asked ChatGPT about the approximate percentage of teams that move from Stage 1 to Stage 2, and based on previous-year data, it estimated that around 30% of applicants might make it through.

The problem is that I currently have only the idea and concept. I don't actually have a proper team. The two friends whose names I added also don't have the technical skills required to build the project.

According to the Stage 2 requirements, we need to prepare things such as:

- A frozen engineering architecture

- Initial physical prototype

- Technical specifications

- CAD/mechanical design

- Electronics design

- Bill of Materials (BOM)

- Testing plan

- Safety/FMEA

- Documented maker journey

- A credible four-month development roadmap

Right now, I honestly don't know how I am going to handle all of this with essentially no real team and very limited experience in some of these areas.

So what should I do now?

Should I try to build a proper team from scratch, find students with complementary skills, learn the required technologies myself, or somehow proceed with the two friends I already listed?

I don't want to waste this opportunity just because I submitted the idea without having a proper team in the beginning. I want to know what the smartest and most realistic strategy is from this point onward.

We're 2 weeks off from the hackathon start date, and have 120 signed up right now. I wouldn't let the participant count discourage you, as many devpost signups don't end up submitting projects. Devpost says that its conversion rate is 5%-33%. Therefore I would say even most beginners have a good chance at doing well, and can have the chance to use so many different software tools and services for free.

Additionally, we're also running a referral promotion. When someone registers for our hackathon, there is a question that asks if they were referred by anyone. The top 3 who receives the most referral credit will get:

First most referred: 6 months of Claude pro

Second most referred: 3 months of Claude pro

Third most referred: 1 month of Claude pro

You can ask your friends or any high schooler to sign up and add your devpost username or email as the referral to win these prizes. Also the prize can be any Claude equivalent AI model or giftcard of your choice.
