What Previous Local Ambassadors Have Said

“It has taught me so much, and it has been the highlight of my entire life. I was able to inspire more enthusiastic teenagers like me, and I really think that this event has had a lot of impact to their lives as well. This year, our hackathon has had the pleasure of having 70+ participants, 20+ mentors, 3 local partners and 2 supporting affiliations join our first event. That is absolutely mind-blowing to me.”

    Local Organisers don't need any coding or AI experience, just passion to pay it forward and empower the next generation of responsible tech entrepreneurs!

  • As an organiser, would I participate in the event, or only plan it?

    As a local organiser, you will be planning and hosting the hackathon - not participating in it.
