The Vibe Coding Hackathon is designed as a two-day innovation event that uniquely centers:

  • ​The rapid prototyping spirit of traditional hackathons 
  • ​The strategic business thinking associated with entrepreneurism
  • ​And the iterative feedback integration development cycle of the new era of native AI development.

​It blends the energy of a traditional hackathon but instead focuses on building applications using modern AI tools like Cursor and Loveable to create sustainable solutions. You don’t need to know how to code, but come with an open mind, be ready to think, and be prepared to learn how to leverage AI to solve problems effectively.
