Get ready for Startup Asia Bandung: A Multi-Platform Hackathon

July 29, 2012 by  

After the success of Startup Asia Jakarta 2012, TechinAsia is now back with another Startup Asia. This time, it has chosen Bandung, Indonesia as its third stop.

Startup Asia Bandung 2012 will be different from the previous two events that took place in Jarkarta and Singapore. It will be primarily focused on a 24-hour Hackathon, making it multi-platform and non-restrictive. Developers can code in any language and for any platform.

What participants can expect:

  • 24 hours of fun – Similar to the hackathon in Jakarta, but even more fun! You can expect a lot of activities while the hacking gets tough at night.
  • Challenges – There will be some challenges to throw at the developers. Put your skills to work and live up to the challenge.
  • Prizes – Each challenge comes with a prize, like some bonus cash, gadgets, and/or a possible internship at a tech company.
  • APIs – There will be a list of APIs to have fun with.
  • People – Meet like-minded developers and test out your skills with them.

Who should attend:

Developers and designers across Indonesia are encouraged to take part in this Hackathon. You can formulate and plan your idea beforehand, but no code should be written before the Hackathon starts. You can also form your dream team first before going into the hackathon, or you can group up with some new friends and form a team once you’re there.

Date: Saturday-Sunday, 13th – 14th October 2012
Time: Saturday 12.:30PM - Sunday 6:00PM
