ProducHack Blockchain Hackathon 1(one)
ProducHack Blockchain Hackathon 1
Ideas are free, everyone has them… only a few turn their ideas to products.
Creating products like anything else, takes practice, practice, practice
That’s what Hackathons are for, practice turning your idea into a product and possibly create the next mega billion dollar startup in the process.
Hackathons help you clear the fluff and narrow your idea down to its most simple version, one that can be created over a weekend by yourself as a single coder or as a team.
You get the amazing feeling of knowing you brought your idea to life and more importantly, you won some cash, meet some great people and enhanced your entrepreneurship while doing so.
ProducHack is a new hackathon events series that aims to bring the spirit of San Francisco to the DMV. Win awesome prizes including cash, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, meet other developers, entrepreneurs, designers and idea generators, eat good food and most importantly have fun.
While this is titled as a blockchain hackathon, not all products have to be blockchain focused. In fact, there will be entrepreneurs in attendance who are looking to get an app or website built for their business or idea.
You can compete just for the prize individual business and entrepreneurs are offering, or for the main prize with your blockchain product.
We look forward to seeing you at this amazing event.
