Agents for Impact - Hackathon at SJSU
Ready to code at the speed of thought…and make it matter?
NVIDIA is throwing out the rulebook. No boilerplate. No overthinking. Just you, AI, and whatever world-changing idea you can ship in two hours. Welcome to Agents for Impact—a vibe coding hackathon challenging you to create a powerful AI agent that drives positive change.
This isn't about building another chatbot. It's about building agents that act: systems that can reason, use tools, access real-time data, and execute multi-step workflows autonomously.
Your team (solo–4 people) will harness world-class endpoints and AI-native tooling to build powerful agents—agents that don't just talk, but act on problems worth solving. In order to qualify for a prize teams must use NVIDIA Nemotron models.
The winning teams will receive free developer tool credits, recruiting opportunities, and exclusive swag.
Are you ready to build an agent for impact?
