Frequently asked Questions




HacK.M.K is a 24 hour student hackathon. We warmly welcome every student, to create awesome projects. Over the weekend, hackathon participants form teams of up to 4 people, and have 24 hours to build a project before presenting it in front of a jury, who will hand out the prizes. Hackathons are a great opportunity for students to take their knowledge out of the classroom, experiment with new and exciting technologies, and make lasting friendships with like-minded people.

A hackathon is best described as an ‘invention marathon’. Amongst the computing community, to hack is to build a project in a short time simply to demonstrate an idea or play around with new technologies.

Don't worry if you don't have a team already! We'll find one for you. Before the hacking there will be a short event, where those without premade partners could find other people to team up with.

HacK.M.K is only for students, and therefore you must currently be one, with a valid Student ID.

You don’t have to be a coder to participate in the hackathon! You can still become a valuable team member, offering a fresh perspective, or perhaps by bringing other skills to the table such as design, data analysis or insights into user needs. Hackathons are great opportunities to learn too, it's a friendly environment where the mentors will help the teams by sharing their knowledge. So come along if you'd like to develop your coding skills!

Your choice, we only give you the thematics of the projects, you can choose your mean of realisation. From our perspective, your imagination is the only restriction.

Of course you can! The venue will be open during the competition, you can enter and exit the building whenever you want. We will be there all the time :)

Nothing! HacK.M.K is free to attend thanks to our fantastic partners and sponsors.

We offer you three meals during the hackathon, thanks to our amazing sponsors.

All intellectual property generated at our hackathon belongs to the developer. However, to generate the widest benefit from this event, we encourage hackers to provide Open Source licenses for the results of their creativity.

While you can explore ideas and produce designs before HacK.M.K, you cannot write a line of code for your project before the event itself. We’d like this event to happen in the spirit of fair play, so please be honest, we aren’t lying about the food either. :)

You may have need of your laptop, charger and maybe some additional components that can be useful for your project.
