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.
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.
Yes, at least one team member must be in Hong Kong on March 29th and April 5th.
Nope! The hackathon only takes place on March 29th and April 5th at CIS, so you won't need to miss any school. From March 30th to April 4th, you will work on your project in your own time, with online resources to support.
No, a supervisor is not required to attend the event.
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!
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.
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.
