Science for Humanity starts with great ideas

At ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ, we believe that the world's biggest challenges need the world's brightest minds.

³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Hackathons bring together ambitious young people to work in teams, explore complex problems and develop innovative solutions that could make a real difference to society.

From healthcare and artificial intelligence to sustainability, climate change and future technologies, our events are designed to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs and changemakers.

How do ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Hackathons work?

³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Hackathons are international innovation challenges that encourage participants to think creatively, work collaboratively and tackle real-world issues.

Hackathon participants work in teams to:

• Explore a meaningful global challenge
• Develop an innovative solution
• Present their ideas to panels of judges that include industry leaders and ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ academics

Our events focus on developing the skills that universities and employers increasingly value, including critical thinking, teamwork, communication, leadership and problem-solving.

More than a competition

While prizes and awards are part of all of our events, ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Hackathons are about much more than winning.

They are also an opportunity to:

• Challenge yourself 
• Develop confidence and independence
• Experience collaborative problem-solving
• Connect with talented people 
• Explore future study and career pathways
• Discover how science and innovation can improve lives

Participants leave with new skills and a broader perspective on the challenges facing our world.

A global community of young innovators

As a Hackathon participant, you'll become part of a growing global community united by curiosity and a desire to make a positive impact on the world.

By working with people who bring different experiences, perspectives and skills, our Hackathons are a chance to experience how innovation happens when people work together across traditional subject boundaries – something that happens regularly at ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ.
