Prizes

Three things to win, at three moments of the programme: vouchers for the people who feed the needs library now, prizes for the teams that build in November, and support for the projects that come out of the weekend.

A team presenting on stage to a full auditorium, a network of sensor and health data projected on the screen behind them.

Prizes for the best teams

Awarded at the public finals

On 7 November the teams present in public and a jury rewards the strongest projects. Prizes are research-aligned rather than cash: compute credits, equipment and resources a team can put straight into the next step of its project.

Judged on the need it answers, the prototype, and the plan to become a fundable project.
Awards close the weekend on Saturday evening.
Winning teams are first in line for the support that follows the weekend.

Apply and contribute needs to get onboarded

This page is updated as prizes are confirmed. The November prizes and the support after the weekend depend on the sponsors confirmed.

How prizes are decided

The Synapsy voucher follows the public leaderboard, checked by the organising team for validity before the call closes.
The Fondation Pôle Autisme voucher is chosen by the organising team with Professor Marie Schaer among the eligible needs.
Hackathon prizes are awarded by a jury of clinicians, researchers and partners at the public finals, on criteria published with the challenges.
Support after the weekend goes to projects the jury has ranked. The organisers decide and are not obliged to give reasons.
Vouchers and prizes are personal and cannot be exchanged for cash.

The first prizes are already open

Submit a need before 15 October: it is how you apply, and it puts you in the running for both vouchers.
