I'm not an experienced programmer. Can I still join?

Absolutely! We'll be running workshops on programming throughout the week for all experience levels, and we'll have mentors available to help. Plus, a team needs more than just coders! Designers, environmentalists, and others are equally important.

I don't know English that well. Can I participate?

Yes! Being a native English speaker is not a requirement to join, and it won't factor into judging. However, note that our workshops will be in English, and your final submission should be in English.

Do I have to be in Hong Kong to join?

No. If you can't physically attend the event, you will be able to do a video submission.

Do I have to have a supervisor accompanying me to the event?

No, a supervisor is not required to attend the event.

I'm not part of a team. Can I join?

Please do! We'll group individuals into teams based on your interests, which you'll be able to share with us after you join. Don't worry about finding a team!

How does the hackathon work?

The goal of a hackathon is to collaborate with a team to create a project in a short period of time. You'll join as a team and work together during the week to make something cool. Partner companies will present a problem statement they face and your team will create a solution.

Do I have to join workshops and other events?

Attending events will not be compulsory, but we strongly encourage you to join as much as possible to expand your experience and learn skills that will help you in making your project. If you have conflicting events, you'll be able to rewatch recordings of select workshops.

What is this year's theme?

The theme for this year is QUALITY EDUCATION. We will post the details soon.
