About the challenge

The Emerald Innovation Challenge is a full-day hackathon for middle and high school students. You will get a chance to work individually or in teams to code incredible projects, explore new technologies, and turn bold ideas into working prototypes. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced coder, this hackathon is a welcoming environment to learn, experiment, and push your skills further. In addition to hacking, you will get to enjoy free food, meet like-minded peers, and be part of an energetic, supportive community. At the end of the event, all will pitch their projects to judges and compete for massive prizes, recognition, and special awards celebrating innovation, design, AI, and real-world impact.
