About the Hackathon

This is not a typical contest.
This is a public scoreboard challenge designed to test real marketing skills in the real world.

Participants will create one digital marketing asset — such as a viral hook, meme ad, short video, or bold campaign concept — and publish it publicly.

If your idea is powerful, people will stop, react, share, and vote.
If it doesn’t connect, it won’t move.

Votes decide success.
No ads. No shortcuts. Just creativity, reach, and the ability to capture attention.

This challenge focuses on real engagement, not just theory.
