About Event

After hosting JacHacks at the University of Michigan, launching a global edition, and bringing builders together in San Francisco, we’re taking the next chapter to Dubai.

JacHacks Dubai is a one-day AI hackathon for students, developers, designers, founders, and first-time builders who want to learn practical AI skills and turn an idea into a working project.

Whether you’re already building with AI or starting from scratch, you’ll spend the day learning, meeting ambitious people, forming a team, and shipping something real.

Here’s why you don’t want to miss it:

🧠 Learn practical AI and software-building skills through hands-on experience

🎓 Create a real project that you can showcase in your university applications, portfolio, résumé, or interviews

🧑‍🏫 Learn directly from a University of Michigan professor and a Y Combinator founder

🏆 Compete for thousands of AED in prizes

🤝 Meet potential teammates, co-founders, mentors, and other ambitious builders

🚀 Go from an idea to a working prototype in a single day

You do not need to arrive with a team or a finished idea. Come ready to learn, experiment, and build. Beginners are welcome.

More than 1,000 builders from 20+ leading universities have participated across three JacHacks events, including students from Michigan, Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, and Waterloo. Now JacHacks is coming to Dubai.
