We are The Hackitarians. We want to make the world a better place. By Hacking It. That’s What We Do. We Design, Build and Run Hackathons.
Thinking about running a Hackathon, but don’t know where to start? We can help!
The Kickstart
We begin by Kickstarting the process with an intense brainstorming session where we present scenarios from past hackathons we have run, elucidate on new ideas and begin to formulate some ideas for your hackathon. This is the beginning of the process and where it all begins!
The Pieces
Then we take the ideas born from our brainstorming session and create a general plan in how we approach a fit into the methodology we have devised in order to ensure all aspects of the hackathon are covered and we move forward towards actualization of plan with all expectations managed well.
The Build
The Program, The Core, The Approach, The Stakeholders, The Location, The Mentors, Speakers, The Pitches & Prizes, The Jury, and The Incubation. The pieces of the puzzle come together; we complete each part of the requirements needed according to our recipe for running a successful event.
The Take Off!
With the plan in place we work with you pre-event, during and post-event to ensure maximum efficiency, exposure, and dissemination. With 8-12 weeks pre-hackathon, we help with finding sponsors, attendee marketing, contracts, jury selection to help you to set off on a flying start!
