Hackathon Challenges

Fintech

Innovation in financial services have just begun to come. From making access to banking and financial services easier for the consumers to making these systems secure from cyber attacks, there are many interesting hacks that can be built.

IoT

A world of devices connected by internet opens up opportunities for us that were previously unthinkable. Innovative apps can be built that can allow devices to share data and take intelligent decisions.

Gaming

With more than 1 million games across iOS and Android, games are the most popular app category on smart phones. Some really interesting games can be built on these mobile platforms and some on the browser as well.

Open Source

Starting from early 1980s, Open source gained serious traction in 1990s, with the rise of Linux. Today open source tools are used by billions of users across the world. Open source largely relies on collaborative efforts of enthusiastic contributors around the world.

Online Commerce

Online commerce has changed everyone’s shopping behaviour. The ability to browse through millions of products and get them delivered while sitting at home is revolutionary. Some really innovative apps can be built to make this experience better and easier.

Travel & Transportation

Travel has been significantly disrupted in the last 5 years by digital technology. Numerous apps can be built that help in creating a seamless experience for travelers right from discovery to the final travel.
