Upland, a popular open metaverse platform, has opened applications for its Genesis 2024 Hackathon, allowing interested participants the chance to propose innovative ideas and gain exposure within the web3 community.
The Genesis 2024 Hackathon is designed for developers and entrepreneurs interested in web3 and blockchain gaming, and are expected to propose new services, games, or experiences that leverage Upland’s platform and developer tools to engage with its growing user base.
This year, participants are encouraged to focus on business planning rather than building working prototypes, allowing for more flexibility and creativity in their submissions.
How to get involved with Genesis 2024 Hackathon?
Teams will have 10 days to create a business plan that outlines their project concept, team background, and go-to-market strategy.
Judges will evaluate entries based on criteria like innovation, feasibility, and effective use of Upland’s developer tools. Submissions must be in PDF format with a separate Canva presentation by May 10 at 16:00 UTC via the link on Upland’s official channels.
All finalist will be notified by May 13 and the top five teams will be invited to present their projects during Genesis Week in Las Vegas.
Teams will compete for the Kickoff Grant of $2,500 for first place and $1,000 for second place during Phase 1. In Phase 2, a $15,000 MVP Deployment Bonus will be awarded to first place, and $7,500 for second place. The MVP Deployment bonus is granted for successful deployment in Upland within the required time period.
Final presentations and the announcement of winners will take place at the Upland Awards Show on June 7.
