Theme
We've kept the theme open on purpose. We want you to come out with a creative AI-powered project that has an impact on our personal or professional lives - with a small twist included that will be announced at the start.
Note: The hosting venture firms usually prefer B2B products... :)
Schedule
There'll be one small additional twist t.b.a. on Saturday at 09:30, which is the starting date of the Hackathon. You are welcome to work from anywhere, but the Ridge office will be open for you to meet and work from.
We'll all meet (if possible) on Sunday at 15:00 at the Ridge Ventures office in San Francisco for the showcase to start. There you'll present your project to our judges who will give feedback and score to decide a winner.
For those who can't make it, you'll be able to present via video call. Joining in the flesh is preferred.
Pizza for all will be generously provided by Scribble Ventures.
