Private Equity Hackathon
Build real tools for deal workflows, due diligence, and finance systems
We are bringing together students and early-career talent to build practical tools at the intersection of finance and technology, in collaboration with WAD Capital.
This is not a traditional hackathon focused on abstract ideas. Participants will work on real-world private equity and finance workflows, developing tools that could be used in actual deal environments.
Example challenges include:
LBO modelling tools with scenario analysis
Due diligence and investment memo generators
CRM-based deal tracking workflows
Automation tools for NDAs, LOIs, and internal processes
Participants will be able to choose between challenges of varying difficulty and build independently or in teams, using modern development tools and AI-assisted workflows.
The goal is to move beyond theory and create functional, industry-relevant solutions.
Selected projects may have the opportunity to be further developed and integrated into real workflows.
Format:
In-person (Brussels) + virtual participation
Who should apply:
Students and early-career talent in finance, tech, or related fields
Individuals interested in building, not just learning
Those curious about applying technical skills in real financial contexts
