Workshop 1 | Zero to Hero: Hackathon Series | CTU x SolanaCZ

​CTU Blockchain Labs and the SolanaCZ community invite you to a 4-part workshop series preparing student builders specifically for the Solana Colosseum Hackathon.

​Colosseum is the official global Solana hackathon, bringing together thousands of builders worldwide in a multi-week online sprint. Winning teams compete for significant prize pools, ecosystem exposure and often move on to accelerators or raise funding.

​This series is designed to help you go from raw idea to hackathon-ready product with mentoring from leading ecosystem partners.

​What you can expect throughout the series:

• ​Direct mentoring from major Solana ecosystem partners

• ​Practical, hands-on sessions

• ​Feedback from experienced builders

• ​Free beer, soft drinks and snacks

• ​A local Build Station finale with 500+ USD in prize money

​🧠 Workshop 1: Ideation & Vibe Coding

​The hackathon starts long before you write your first line of code.

​In this session with SolanaCZ & CODESPECT, we focus on:

• ​Finding strong, differentiated hackathon ideas

• ​Aligning ideas with Colosseum tracks

• ​Rapid validation of concepts

• ​Turning vague inspiration into structured direction

• ​Vibe coding and early prototyping mindset
