These sessions are designed to spark creativity and encourage meaningful collaboration among participants.
Throughout the hackathon, you’ll have the chance to join mini-workshops focused on building and refining your projects. Topics include crafting the perfect pitch deck, roadmap planning, and advanced technical sessions like ink! to PolkaVM. Dedicated doubt-solving and feedback sessions ensure you get the support you need, while on-demand mentoring is available around the clock to help you tackle any roadblocks.
Mentoring rounds will guide you through feasibility, feature, and pitch reviews, helping you polish your project before the final judging. With triple and quad sharing rooms provided, you’ll have a comfortable space to rest and recharge between sessions. Delicious meals; lunch, dinner, and breakfast are included throughout to keep your energy up.
The excitement peaks with the final judging round, where each team gets their moment to shine. Winners will be announced alongside the breakfast on the last day, followed by a celebratory prize distribution. After an inspiring and rewarding experience, participants will check out by 10 am, taking home new skills, connections, and memories from Polkadot's future vibrant tech community!
