Hacktivate 2023

About the challenge Welcome to Hacktivate 2023, the ultimate online hackathon designed for middle schoolers! Hacktiavte is a one-of-a-kind hackathon aimed at bringing out the fun and creative aspects of programming among middle school students. We believe that coding is not just about solving problems but also about expressing oneself through technology. You can compete in a team of 3 to 5 members to create a project that demonstrates your creativity, artistic skills, and imagination. Throughout the event, we will be hosting several workshops and Q & A sessions. In addition to workshops, there will be various activities to encourage participants to showcase their skills and talents. Participants will be encouraged to think outside the box and bring their imaginations to life. There will be prizes for the top 3 teams, and the first 25 people to register will receive a swag bag. Join us for an exciting and innovative event where your creativity, artistic skills, and imagination will be unleashed through the power of programming.
