At the youth hackathon we want to empower and enable the next generation to cope with the digital world.
The goal is to develop a project in one day that solves a problem using blockchain or DLT technology. The project can either be a piece of code / Prototype / Mock-up OR a Pitch deck (PowerPoint, digital media of some form video or similar). There will be a list of suggestions for problems at the Hackathon, but you can decide yourself what
kind of problem you want to tackle
