Alibaba Cloud Agentic AI Hackathon
About the Hackathon
This session kicks off the Alibaba Cloud Agentic AI Hackathon powered by Qoder in Vietnam — a briefing and hands-on warmup before the main competition begins. Get introduced to Qoder, the AI-native productivity and agentic coding platform, and go through a guided build using Expert Mode and Quest Mode so you're ready to hit the ground running.
This year's challenge focuses on Financial Services (FSI). Build agentic AI solutions for real problems in banking, insurance, and capital markets — think risk assessment, fraud detection, compliance, and customer experience.
Whether you're a seasoned developer or have zero coding experience, this kickoff gives you everything you need to start strong. After this session, you'll have a 2-week window to refine your project, share your work, get recognized, and win Qoder credits.
Who Should Join?
This hackathon is intentionally open. We're looking for a diverse mix of builders:
Developers exploring agentic AI coding workflows
Product managers and entrepreneurs shipping working software from ideas
Designers and analysts building tools with AI assistance
Prizes
Winners share a USD3,000+ prize pool in cash or credits, Qoder Pro plans, and exclusive swag — If you've had an idea sitting in your notes app, this is your sign to finally build it.
