Spatial Intelligence + Generative 3D Hackathon with Mint, Tripo, World Labs and Founders Inc.

Spatial Intelligence + Generative 3D Hackathon — Event Plan World Labs × Tripo × mint.gg · One-day hackathon · San Francisco Overview We're teaming up with World Labs, Tripo, and mint.gg for a one-day hackathon in San Francisco at the intersection of spatial intelligence and generative 3D. Participants will get hands-on access to some of the best tools in 3D: World Labs — large world models for generating immersive worldsTripo — rapid 3D asset generation for creating game-ready objectsmint.gg — agentic creation platform and developer tools for bringing those worlds and assets together as interactive, playable experiences Together, we'll explore what becomes possible when entire worlds, detailed 3D objects, and real-time scenes can be generated from little more than a prompt or an image — and then quickly assembled, programmed, and shared. Tracks Gaming — Playable worlds, games, interactive experiences, and real-time 3D scenesPhysical AI — Robotics, simulation, embodied agents, and spatial reasoningVFX — Visual effects, virtual production, cinematic experiences, simulations, and creative real-time graphicsOpen — Experimental projects that do not fit neatly into the other tracks Prizes Top 2 teams in each category (Gaming, Physical AI, VFX, and Open) each win $1k in credits from each of the three partners:$1k in World Labs credits$1k in Tripo credits$1k in mint.gg creditsThat's $3k in total credits per winning team Opening Ceremonies & Opening Presentations Approx. 8:30–10:30 AM — a ~90-minute kickoff (plus check-in).
