Part 2 Toronto Hackathon — Demo Day

Builders wanted. InstaLILY is assembling the first cohort of builders to join our new Toronto office. We’re kicking it off with a hackathon in partnership with Google DeepMind. After a week of building remotely, we’re coming together for a Demo Day on October 2 to walk through your projects, announce the winner, and celebrate. The winner will get fast-tracked to a final-round interview to join our Toronto team. Build it. Break it. Deploy it. Builders for the InstaLILY x Google DeepMind Toronto Hackathon have a week to work remotely on a multi-agent orchestration project that solves a single objective, from September 22 - 29. You'll use Gemma to design agents that delegate work to each other, report back what they find, challenge each other's conclusions, and synthesize results. You can work wherever and whenever works for you. All projects are due September 29. Demo Day: October 2, 2026. Once all projects are submitted, our judges will choose 3 finalists from the 125 participants enrolled in the challenge. Finalists will come together in Toronto for Demo Day on October 2 to show off what they’ve created in front of a panel of judges from InstaLILY and Google DeepMind. Whether you’re a finalist, a participant, or a supporter, we’d love to see you there! Note: If you would like to either participate or attend to support Demo Day, please make sure you register. If selected, you must attend in person to win. Judges include founding engineers and specialists in artificial intelligence and backend development. Find out more at https://toronto26.instalily.ai/.
