Setting Up a Hackathon for Business

As a business, organizing hackathons can be an effective way to put the word out about your product in the developer community, collect feedback and grow your team.

On hosting a hackathon on Devfolio, businesses get priority support, help with profile review and outreach. You don’t need to have a hackathon website to start accepting applications with Devfolio. With a dedicated Devfolio hosted subdomain, you can get up and running within no time.

Reach out to us on partner@devfolio.co for pricing information.

Note: Please reach out to us regarding the activation of your hackathon in case you have already set it up on the organizer dashboard (org.devfolio.co).
