• With the former experience of coordinating Cardano Summit 2021 Buenos Aires event for 120 people with success, we know that similar event like Hackathon could attract many develpers, coders, computer engineers, enthusiasts who want to participate, therefore we would love to organize a two-day Hackaton, gathering local developers of all skill levels (novice, intermediate and advanced) to partner up and compete in development contests, supervised by a suitable jury, in order to encourage collaborative work among them and exchanging ideas.

• We will anounce Hackathon event through social media, with the propose of gathering local developers to participate in development contests, allowing them to develop collaborative work and creating new ideas while having fun.

• It will be a Two-day events on a weekend of 8 hours per day from 9 am to 17 pm

• We will use the Prize to attract developers, coders, computer engineers, enthusiasts to participate and cooperate among them to create or develp some interesting ideas together.

The main goals are:

• Strengthen Cardano Community that the hackathon is for.

• Welcoming to newcomers to join Cardano Community in Argentina.

• Provide an opportunity for participants to learn something new and work together in groups.

• Provide a space and a time for participants to make headway on problems they are interested in.

• Teams fail to solve the challenges on time

• Not gathering enough professionals to form 5 teams

• New Covid restrictions for in person events, in this case we will mitigate to online Hackathons event increasing the Prize of the winners.

Detail Plan

The propose of Hackathon event is to gather programmers, coders, and software designers to work together based on Plutus, allowing them with similar interests and complementary skills to work together, giving them room to try out new ideas that could accomplish in group and open the floor up even more to new perspectives. Participants will benefit from the mix of skills and new ideas that a diverse group brings to the table. Hackathons are a great alternative to a team retreat or convention because they get everyone engaged in the process.
