Hanwha Group Expands Blockchain Ecosystem... Hosts Hackathon
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Soyeon] Hanwha Group is hosting the 'Dreamin Blockchain Hackathon' to revitalize the blockchain ecosystem and nurture core talents. The Dreamin blockchain hackathon is an event where participants develop business apps using blockchain technology.
On the 18th, Hanwha Group announced that it will hold an online hackathon over two days, from the 18th to 19th of next month, under the theme of 'Blockchain-based Decentralized Application dApp Development.' A hackathon is a combination of hacking and marathon, where planners, developers, designers, and other participants form teams within a limited time to generate ideas and complete business models based on them.
This hackathon allows teams of four, composed of university students and the general public, to apply, and each team must include developers and designers. Teams wishing to participate must submit a business proposal including a prototype on the 'Dreamin' website by the 30th. Twenty teams will be selected based on judges' evaluations considering understanding of blockchain, problem-solving ability, team composition, and business potential.
After the hackathon, the five final selected teams will participate in an offline hackathon held from January 15 to 17 next year. Through in-depth mentoring, they will enhance blockchain utilization, assess business potential, and undergo final evaluation of their results. The mentors consist of experts from partner companies such as Line Tech Plus, CoinDesk, Blockchain Labs, and Delight. Notably, the partner companies are mainly tenants of Hanwha Life Dreamplus.
