Four tracks, one rule
Research
In designOpen questions in a scientific field, judged against a published rubric.
Health
In designHow a challenge works
- 01
Whoever funds
Whoever funds a challenge sets the question — the specific problem entrants take on.
- 02
Published rubric
Published before anything opens, and the same for every entrant.
- 03
Projects judged
Every entry is judged against the rubric, in the open. Entry is always free.
- 04
Prize in custody
An external programme partner holds and releases any prize end to end — never Vocaid, and entry itself is always free.
Whoever fundsthe score
They never touch the score — the sponsor funds the question, never the score, and every entry is judged against a rubric published before anything opens.
No results yet
Winners and projects will appear here once a hackathon concludes and its awards are recorded.
Fund a track
A sponsor or a deeptech team can put a question behind any of the four tracks above. Nothing is running yet — the conversation starts with our partnerships team.
Invitation
Two minutes. Then you decide.
A short video about what the community is, who is already inside, and what does not exist yet.
Free, always. No card.
A recording by the community itself, unscripted. Captions follow the video and can be switched off. The content is informational — not a job offer, an investment or a financial service — and every track above is in design, with no open challenge.
