Crypto World’s Fair Ideathon, hosted by Superteam Ireland Join Superteam Ireland at Ormeau Labs, Belfast, for an ideathon to help you shape a startup idea and take it into Crypto World’s Fair, Colosseum’s global crypto hackathon. No code required. All levels welcome. $500 in prizes. What’s an ideathon? A hackathon for ideas. You’ll spend an afternoon shaping a startup idea, pressure testing it with people who’ve built before, and pitching it to judges for feedback. You leave with something you can actually take into the hackathon. What’s Colosseum? Colosseum runs global online crypto hackathons, alongside an accelerator and venture fund. Its competitions have attracted more than 60,000 builders. Selected Solana teams accepted into its accelerator receive $250k in pre-seed funding, mentorship and support to build their startups. What’s Crypto World’s Fair? Colosseum’s newest hackathon, and its first open to builders across every blockchain ecosystem, not just Solana. It runs online from 14 September to 12 October, with $840,000 in prizes and $2.5 million in seed funding on the line. This ideathon is your chance to find an idea, sharpen it and get building before the deadline. Who should come? All levels welcome. You don’t need a team, a technical background or a finished idea. You’ll learn and develop ideas on the day, ready to bring them forward to the hackathon. The room will be full of people who’ve built startups and work in the space, so it’s a great place to meet potential cofounders. Prizes and format $500 in prizes. We’ll give you a guide on how to shape your idea, time to develop it, and the chance to pitch to judges for feedback.
