Cursor's First UAE Student Hackathon @ NYU Abu Dhabi 🚀 Cursor is coming to Abu Dhabi for our FIRST hackathon in the UAE! Organized by Cursor AI and Violet Ventures at NYU Abu Dhabi. Join us for a full-day startup sprint where designers, founders, and builders turn ideas into real products—powered by Cursor. Why Attend? With Cursor, creating tools is fast, flexible, and easier than ever. No coding or startup experience required. This isn't about who can code fastest, it's about solving real problems with great ideas and value-centric design. Great products come from insight. We're looking for multidisciplinary teams that bring together engineering, interactive design, business, social sciences, and more. This could be the inception of your startup.
