Future Founders Hackathon

​Hosted by Flax x Founders Factory

​A curated one-day AI build sprint where founders, founding engineers, and experienced AI builders come together to solve real startup problems.

​Only 30 to 40 participants will be selected to ensure high-quality collaboration, real conversations, and meaningful outcomes.

​This is not a student hackathon.
It’s an execution-focused environment for builders who think in products, startups, and real-world impact.
