WHAT IS HYLIFE HACKATHON 2025?

At Hylife Hackathon 2025, we will help innovators build, launch, and grow solutions that matter.

Hylife Hackathon 2025 is a challenge for developers, designers, and creative thinkers to turn bold ideas into real, sustainable businesses.

Join as a team of 3–5 members and build something that matters — from prototype to platform.

Develop solutions the market truly needs. Work side by side with mentors, industry experts, and real business partners who can help you take your idea further.
