Local Pop-Up Hackathons

Bootstrapping Innovation—One City at a Time

Beyond our global online events, we host Local Pop-Up Hackathons in high-potential tech cities across the world. These on-the-ground, high-intensity gatherings are designed to rapidly mobilize talent, surface game-changing ideas, and feed top projects directly into our ecosystem.

These hackathons are spontaneous by design—announced just weeks before deployment and executed within days. They attract builders, founders, and thinkers who thrive under pressure and want to launch where innovation meets capital.

Hackathon Highlights:

Why Pop-Ups Work:

These events combine fast iteration with real-world grounding—taking place in dynamic tech ecosystems where builders are already experimenting with Web3, DeFi, AI, and fintech infrastructure. Local insight meets global funding, creating fertile ground for ideas that are both bold and executable.
