Hackathon in Singapore: a month-long, collaborative experience where you work on quantum computing.
What is the hackamonth?
Organised by Singapore’s Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT), the hackamonth is an innovative approach to hackathons: a month-long, collaborative experience where participants work on quantum computing for meaningful problems. Typical hackathons are short and competitive, ending with prizes. With our hackamonth, we want to have real scientific impact.
