JacHacks Global
After hosting JacHacks in the U.S. with 200+ students, 70 projects, and participants from 20+ universities, we’re taking it global.
This is a fully online hackathon where anyone, from anywhere, can build and be part of a growing AI ecosystem.
At the center of it is Jac, an agent-first programming language developed at the University of Michigan by Jason Mars. It’s built for creating AI-native, multi-agent systems, and you’ll get the chance to learn it directly from the people pushing this space forward.
Throughout the hackathon, you’ll hear from YC founders, startup operators, and engineers working on real-world AI products, sharing how they’re building and what’s actually working.
Beyond just building, this is about:
being around people who are serious about startups and AI
learning directly from builders, not just content
and getting plugged into a fast-growing network
We’re also hosting smaller founder dinners and community events as part of the global rollout in some destinations.
If you’re excited about agentic AI and want to build with people who are actually in it, you’ll fit right in.
