Colosseum AMA - with Housd + Stablecorp
With the submission deadline less than 1 week away, it's time to think beyond just building.
What does a winning Colosseum submission actually look like? What matters to the judges? And what happens if you make it into the Accelerator?
On Oct. 8th, we're joined by not one, but two Colosseum winners: João from Housd, and 10k Rotator from Stablecorp to answer all these questions.
10k and João have been through the entire journey a few times before winning Colosseum in 2026. They are here to share the lessons they learned that helped them win, and answer any questions you have.
We will cover:
→ What made their submissions stand out
→ How to think about your pitch, demo and submission
→ What judges are looking for
→ What they'd do differently if he were entering Colosseum again today.
→ What they learned from winning Colosseum
→ What happens after you win
→ The Accelerator application and selection process
→ What the Accelerator is actually like
→ How to prepare now if your goal is to make the Accelerator
It's also an open AMA, so bring your questions about Colosseum, submissions, pitching, the Accelerator, fundraising, or building your project beyond the hackathon.
Who it's for: Anyone building for Colosseum who wants to put together a stronger submission — particularly teams thinking beyond the hackathon and towards the Accelerator.
You'll leave with: Practical advice from someone who's gone from Colosseum builder → winner → Accelerator founder, and a much clearer idea of what you should be working towards over the remaining weeks.
Free and open. Bring your project and your questions for 10k and João.
