☀️ Summer #Hackathons: From Off-Season to Innovation Season Not too long ago, summer hackathons weren’t something we regularly recommended, students were often traveling, interning, or just catching a break. But that’s changed. A lot. In the past few years, we’ve seen an undeniable surge in student-led summer hackathons, and this season, it’s clear: summer is no longer the off-season for innovation. 🚀 Just look at what’s happening: AI for Good hackathons are thriving, like Northeastern’s summer challenges where #students built real-world solutions like food waste apps from fridge pics. Student-run events like Hack the 6ix, TeenHacks LI, and #SummerCodeX are drawing hundreds of young builders. Civic-tech and university-led hackathons, like Boston University’s 2025 event with 190+ student hackers—are now summer staples. Research is backing it up: summer hackathons offer not only technical growth, but also boost soft skills and career readiness. And of course: Huawei is playing a major role in this movement. Their #TechArena hackathons continue to energize students across Europe all summer long. Huawei Sweden’s 2025 edition is fully online, focused on AI-powered 6G innovations, and offering €20,000+ in prizes. 📡 Innovation, AI, and sunshine, what’s not to love?

Won a hackathon!!! 😎🏆 Was casually going to campus when my friend told me they were going for a hackathon — “Are you joining?” Registration fee was ₹500. I mind-gamed some quick estimations and felt it’s worth it — so I said yes. The hackathon was at LEAD College, Palakkad, with participants from all over Kerala and Tamil Nadu (because it’s on the border). It was a solo hackathon, and the domain I chose was Robotics + IoT. The challenge: Identify and solve a problem in agriculture using IoT/robotics — and pitch it. And what’s the surprising part? I actually won the hackathon and bagged the ₹10K prize money Turns out… my mind-estimation was right. Totally worth it. 😌 Enjoyed the food, the stay, the ambience — and yep, the prize money too. Sometimes, it’s not just about the idea — it’s about how you pitch it. #Hackathon #IoT #Robotics #StudentLife #Agritech #LEADCollege #SoloProject #EngineeringVibes #PitchItRight
