Global Idea Hackathon

Overview Built with AI. Learn by doing. Reflect to grow. 2 DAYS HACKATHON An 8-hour, hands-on sprint where pre-assigned teams use AI to turn a problem into a solution. Coached by AI & Marketing mentors, and closed with judging, awards, and a guided debrief to lock in the learning. This is not just a competition, it’s a structured, supportive learning journey. We eliminate the usual time sinks: Teams are pre-assigned for diversity. Problem statements are assigned by random draw, allowing you to dive straight into creation and problem-solving. You’ll learn by doing with supportive coaches and mentors. Learn by reflecting in a signature debrief to turn the weekend into lasting skills. Who this is for Aspiring global innovators, expats, international students, and Koreans with global ideas, especially those curious about building AI-powered solutions. What you’ll experience Structured freedom: pre-assigned teams (3–4) and assigned problem statements to focus energy on solving from minute one. Aligned mentorship: AI mentors for technical/feasibility guidance and Marketing mentors for go-to-market viability, briefed to support the process without hijacking it. Learning that lasts: a final debrief that transforms the sprint into a transferable insight. Benefits & Opportunities 1st Place: ₩500,000. 2nd Place: ₩300,000. 3rd Place: ₩200,000.
