🟠Mentors will help teams develop their solutions.  They are ready to motivate and provide new perspectives so teams can reach their goals!

🟠The entire creative experience will be curated by hackathon facilitators, the organizing team, and the coolest volunteers.

🟠At the end of the event, the solutions proposed by the teams will be evaluated by a panel of judges made up of entrepreneurship experts.

🟠The top twenty teams will not only win prizes but will also be invited to grow their startups through pre-acceleration programs.
