IDEAS Global Blockchain & Data Analytics Hackathon at Stanford University
Creating a data engineering and science developer community
Our goal is to create a data engineering and science developer community. The Globale Blockchain & Data Analytics Hackathon contains competitions across the U.S. in two major technologies: blockchain and data analytics. All competitors will demonstrate cutting-edge technology and cover diverse topics including industry trends, real world applications, open source software, solution-based case studies and many others. The Global Blockchain & Data Analytics Hackathon is hosted by International Data Engineering and Science Association (IDEAS).
We are looking for Coding/Developer Teams and startups in blockchain and data analytics. For the Coding/Developer teams, you will have 2 days to hack a project together with your team and compete for prizes. Startups will be pitching their big ideas to 10+ top venture capital investors.
In addition, data analytics solutions from the hackathon will have the potential to be selected for further development and application within the retail vertical of Vingroup, the largest business conglomerate in Vietnam.
Two MAJOR TOPICS of this Hackathon:
