Student hackathon this weekend: build a mobile app, compete for $65k in prizes

We’re running a student hackathon this weekend and thought it might be interesting to the HN community.

The idea is simple: take a business idea and turn it into a working mobile app over the course of a weekend. The event is open to all undergrads and MBA students.

So far ~250 teams from 30+ schools have registered. The goal is to help students who have ideas but no technical background actually ship something.

Compete for $65k in prizes (cash + credits) from companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe, RevenueCat, Clerky, Supabase, Monologue and others.

Happy to answer questions. Check out the event page to register: www.withwoz.com/buildfast
