Zero / One Hackathon

Join WU's Biggest Hackathon

October 22 · 10:00–22:00 · WU Forum

For one day, WU Forum becomes the garage for your startup idea.

12 hours. Hundreds of students. One shot to turn a spark of an idea into something real — with peer coaching and expert input the whole way, so you're never stuck for long. 

Do not have an idea or team? Don't worry, we got you.

Whether you show up with an idea already in your head or find one on the spot, you'll leave with a prototype and a team that actually gets it done.

This is the biggest hackathon WU has ever run. Be a part of driving innovation at WU!

Pick Your Track

Four tracks, One Day.

  • Open Track Got your own idea? Bring it. Don't have one yet? Find one from scratch and tackle whatever problem excites you most.

  • AI as a Service Build products and services powered by AI — for businesses, for people, for problems that didn't have a smart solution until now.

  • Social Impact Work on ideas that make a real difference — for people, communities, or society at large.

  • Energy & Sustainability Tackle one of the defining challenges of our time: building a cleaner, smarter, more sustainable energy future.

Open to all students; not just WU. Bring your friends, or come alone and build your dream team on the day.
