INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
One final shout-out across Europe to all the creative coders, hackers, programmers and tech makers who suffer from severe procrastination
This is your last chance to register for a spot in the next TechCrunch Hackathon, which takes place at VivaTech on May 25-26 at the Paris
You have one week left to get your free ticket.
The TC Hackathon — open to residents from one of these European countries — represents
an amazing opportunity for you to show off your creative coding skills to the movers and shakers in the European tech scene
Whether you come to build something fun, innovative or life-changing, you&ll be surrounded — and pushed toward greatness — by the best
and brightest coders on the continent.
Here how the Hackathon works
Competitors form ad hoc teams, and they have just 24 hours to create, code and hack their way to a working product using BeMyApp, the
official Hackathon platform
You&ll have to rely on your legal stimulant of choice — coffee, energy drinks or sugar — because once the 24-hour clock stops, each
tired team gets just 60 seconds to pitch their creation to a panel of judges
And they&re wide awake.
The judges will award each team a score between 1-5
The top-scoring team wins the €5,000 grand-prize, and each team that averages a three or better wins five tickets to VivaTech 2019 plus
two Innovator tickets toTechCrunch Disrupt Berlinin November.
