AI Agents Hackathon
🤖 AI AGENT HACKATHON
Building the Future of Autonomous Intelligence
September 6, 2025 | Co-hosted with The Residency
The Inflection Point is Now
2025 is the year of AI agents. While everyone else is still building wrappers around LLMs, the sharpest builders are crafting the autonomous systems that will define the next decade. Women make up just 22% of AI professionals worldwide and only 12% of AI researchers – but that changes here, today, with us.
This isn't another hackathon. This is where the future gets built.
What We're Building
Real agents. Real autonomy. Real impact.
We're talking multi-agent systems that reason, plan, and execute without handholding. Supply chain orchestrators. Research companions that think alongside you. Personal AI that actually understands context. The kind of technology that recent winners like RiskWise have proven can tackle complex domains like supply chain risk analysis with AI agents that provide timely, game-changing insights.
Prize Categories:
Who Should Be Here
The Builders:
Engineers who think in systems, not just code
Researchers who want their work in production, not just papers
Founders building the next Anthropic, not the next ChatGPT wrapper
Women in AI who are tired of being the only one in the room
The Visionaries:
Product leaders who understand that agents ≠ chatbots
Technical founders ready to 10x human capability
Anyone who believes diverse teams are better at identifying potential biases and blind spots in AI systems
Why This Matters for Women
Women's involvement in AI isn't just about technical expertise – it's crucial for ensuring AI solutions tackle ethical and social challenges. Diversity brings unique insights into the ethical and societal implications of AI, helping reduce bias and create technologies that better serve all members of society.
We're actively building the future we want to see:
50% of judging panel are women leaders in AI
Dedicated mentorship track with female AI executives
Networking designed for meaningful connections, not small talk
Direct pipeline to female-founded AI companies actively hiring
Co-hosted with The Residency
The Residency – where ambitious builders live and work alongside equally driven peers – brings their network of entrepreneurs who've already raised from a16z, Collaborative Fund, and other top-tier investors. With Sam Altman as startup advisor and a track record of supporting high-potential builders, this isn't just an event – it's your entry point into the ecosystem that shapes the future.
The Technical Stack
What you'll have access to:
$1000 in credits per team across OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, and Azure
Open source frameworks: LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel
Real datasets from partners (healthcare, finance, climate, supply chain)
GPU clusters for training custom models
Direct API access to latest frontier models
What we expect:
Working demos, not slide decks
Code that runs, not promises it will
Impact that scales, not toys that impress
The Details
When: September 6, 2025 (24 hours of pure building)
Where: Location TBD
