Hard Tech Hackathon Kickoff
The Hard Tech Week Hackathon puts builders up against live challenges from Utah’s hard tech ecosystem. Each sponsor brings a real business problem, defines what winning looks like, and puts a cash bounty behind it.
HOW IT WORKS
Kickoff: Monday, October 26, 4:00 to 5:00 PM. Teams get their challenge briefs, meet the sponsor companies, and start building.
Build: You have 48 hours, from the end of kickoff until judging.
Judging: Wednesday, October 28, 5:00 to 6:00 PM. Each team presents its solution one-on-one to the sponsor judges. Register for judging
Winners: Thursday, October 29. Finalists are notified after judging, and winners are announced on the main stage at Zero Gravity Summit.
TEAMS
Compete on your own or as a team. We recommend up to three people per team, and teams can have no more than five.
BOUNTIES
The challenge briefs will be released at kickoff.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Engineers, developers, designers, founders, and students who want to solve real problems for companies building at the frontier.
