First and foremost, we would like to extend a massive thank you to all of our Genesis Hackathon and Design Challenge participants for being a part of this amazing experience! Many of you answered the call to compete in these highly competitive challenges, and have shown us what our community is truly capable of. We’ve never been more ambitious about the future of the Upland ecosystem! With so many talented community members, we can’t wait to see how they put their skills to work to make the metaverse an amazing place. So, without further ado, let’s review the results.
The following teams were selected to join us in Las Vegas to pitch their projects LIVE to a panel of our very own judges. These teams displayed a cohesive vision and demonstrated a prototype leveraging the new developer tools and services. In no particular order, the following teams have advanced to the finals:
Auction House by HACKER and iKris
GJS NFT Battle Arena by Grombindal, Jmansuy, and SheepMiner
UPX Spark Exchange by Stosh15x, MossiJake, and KaffineAddict
Upland Realty Auctions by Aebstract, Sjr86, and Thetempest
Turned by Alfred, Tim, Johannes, Pascal, and Aiden
Note: All finalists will have received an email with further instructions.
The competition was stiff, and some tough decisions were made in deciding which teams advanced to the final round. We highly encourage all participants to pursue their projects regardless of the outcome of this Hackathon. Many of you are very talented, and we would love to see your products come to life.
Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to invite all participants to apply for the Upland Developers Network; an official Upland community dedicated to developers who are looking for opportunities to build on the Upland Platform.
Thank you all once again for such a tremendous competition, we look forward to many more opportunities for you all to build for the Upland ecosystem. Until next time…
Note on the Design Challenge
We are still working through your submissions and will have further details for you in the coming days!
