We are Australia's largest hackathon for university students. Our competition attract 1000+ students from across Australia and New Zealand studying software engineering, computer science, and related disciplines.
Teams have around 48 hours to design, build, and pitch a prototype of their idea. This can take the form of a website, a mobile app, a video game, or through hardware. The important thing is that it must work when presented.
We pride ourselves in being an inclusive and welcoming space for all, regardless of skill level or academic level. Our event features a wide variety of students: from first-time participants to experienced programmers; those starting out in their first year to their penultimate year at university.
1010 students participating
183 projects submitted
23+ universities represented
26% women or non-binary students
63% in their final year of study
