I’ve participated in 10+ hackathons and proudly won 4 of them — so I know what works (and what doesn’t). In this 1:1 session, I’ll share my actual stories — the wins, the mistakes, and the lessons that helped me build projects that impressed judges.

We’ll cover everything you need to know to give your next hackathon your best shot:

How to choose the right problem statement that stands out

How to pick the right tech stack based on your time and skills (AI, full stack, automation — whatever fits your team best)

What exactly to build in 24-48 hours (and what to skip so you don’t waste time)

How to assemble a smart team and divide work effectively

Tips for creating a pitch/demo that grabs attention

And yes — how you can use AI tools smartly even if you don’t have deep technical knowledge (think no-code, APIs, AI-assisted features)


By the end of our session, you’ll leave with a clear, personalised hackathon game plan — from idea to demo.
