HELLO, HACKING LEMURS!

HackYeah - the one word illustrates the essence of a hackathon — a gathering where innovative minds meet to shape the future. Join us on October 4-5 at the Tauron Arena in Krakow for an unforgettable event!

WHAT'S IN STORE?

Like every year, participants will face several challenges, from which they can select their preferred tasks. Forming teams of 1 to 6 members, participants must create innovative solutions. It's worth noting that while preliminary task descriptions are available on our website, the exact details will only be unveiled on the day of the hackathon. This is when the true magic unfolds. You'll have 24 hours to craft a remarkable idea that will dazzle the judges, and compete for the grand prize. But don't fret - we provide the assistance of qualified mentors onsite. No one is left unattended.


We strive to offer diverse tasks and maintain a broad spectrum of options. Proficiency in programming is not essential for every task! Often a project manager, graphic designer or marketer is crucial to effectively present ideas to the judges. You have the flexibility to work alone or collaborate within a group — choose the approach that suits you best!

DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? 

Remember to join our DISCORD!

Judging criteria

Our Judges will evaluate each task in five categories (unless other criteria are specified in the particular task):

Idea & Innovation - 30%
This criterion evaluates the uniqueness and creativity of the project's concept. Judges will look for groundbreaking ideas and inventive solutions that stand out and demonstrate a high level of innovation.
Relation to Category - 20%
Judges assess how well the project aligns with the specific category or theme of the given task within the hackathon. It is crucial that the project clearly fits within the defined scope, demonstrating relevance to and fulfillment of the objectives associated with this particular category.
Practical Applicability / Usability - 20%
This criterion evaluates the project's real-world utility and ease of use. Judges will consider how practical and functional the solution is, with an emphasis on its ability to address real-world needs effectively and provide a seamless user experience.
Design - 20%
The design criterion evaluates the visual appeal and aesthetics of the project. Judges will assess the overall look and feel of the project, including the design of the user interface, graphics, and any other visual elements.
Completeness & Implementation Value - 10%
This criterion examines the overall completeness of the project and its readiness for implementation. Judges will consider not only the technical robustness but also whether the project is fully developed, and if it has potential for successful implementation in real-world scenarios.

Mentors
