380+ projects were submitted for the @dev3pack global hackathon
We hosted this hackathon with a small budget, but created a global movement, online and IRL in 40+ local hubs, even in bear market. The community showed up not for prizes, but for collaboration, learning, building startups, and getting recognized.
We wanted to bring our own audience, and managed to onboard 4K+ applicants from 84 countries and 1,700+ universities. For most of them, it was their first hackathon ever!
The hackathon became one of the biggest student onboarding initiatives on @solana. Their official student hackathon had around 90 submitted projects, with a different budget.
The secret? Infrastructure and community.
In just a few weeks, with @armolas_06 & @zintarh_dev, we built a cool platform to support the entire hackathon experience, from participation to event coordination. More than 150 people helped organize this movement. Huge thanks to all of them! The energy from emerging markets is unmatched.
Many participants are already pushing their projects further, forming teams, and taking the lead in their local ecosystems. Every project received AI deep feedback and recommendations (product, technical) thanks to @bonfiresai
Today it's an exciting day for all of them, as we are opening our global accelerator with @solana to support their founder journey ๐ซก
We constantly see incredible talent and innovative ideas come out hackathons.
The missing piece? A clear path forward.
The Bridge is exactly what we need to turn those raw builds into real Web3 startups.
Apply by June 12!
