01 / THE MISSION
Not just a hackathon.
A launchpad for what’s next.
Your next big idea might start with a tiny question. Give it 24 hours, a team, and the courage to try.
METAVERSE 2.0 brings students together to explore complex challenges, prototype solutions, and learn by building. Come with curiosity, collaborate with people who see the world differently, and leave with something you can be proud to show.
✳ You don’t need every answer. You just need to start.
Move from a challenge to a demonstrable concept.
Work with teammates who bring different strengths.
Test your thinking, adapt, and present your work.
Show what your team made and what comes next.
