EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Tech & Nation's Summit Hackathon is a flagship three-day national initiative designed to redefine the traditional hackathon model.

Moving away from static prompts, this event introduces a dynamic "Identify-to-Solve" framework where students engage directly with industry "pain points" to derive their own problem statements.

By hosting four simultaneous industry-specific tracks (Banking & Finance, Healthcare, E-commerce, and Education), the summit serves as a high-impact bridge between academic talent and real-world industrial challenges.

"A High-Impact Bridge Between Academic Talent & Industrial Challenges"

THE UNIQUE SELLING PROPOSITION

Analytical Autonomy & Track-Level Collaboration

Industry Pain Points

Rather than being handed a pre-defined coding task, teams act as analysts. We collaborate with C-suite leaders and industry experts to list real-world hurdles caused by—or solvable by—Artificial Intelligence.

Collaborative Problem Derivation

In a departure from individual team tasks, all team leaders within a specific track collaborate to distill vast industry pain points into two definitive, high-stakes problem statements.

INDUSTRY TRACKS

Four simultaneous industry-specific tracks serve as a high-impact bridge between academic talent and real-world industrial challenges.
