BNB Chain x YZi Labs Local Hack: Buenos Aires

Road to Buenos Aires

The first stop of the BNB Hack Local Series is here and we're heading to Buenos Aires.

In partnership with YZi Labs, we're bringing developers, founders and innovators from across LATAM and beyond together for a week of building and learning, all part of DevConnect.

Build Momentum Before Buenos Aires

We’re giving builders a head start with online pre-hackathon sessions that go beyond the usual kickoff, starting three days before the main hackathon.

From Nov 12–14, join the online pre-hackathon to form your team, connect with other builders, and refine your idea through mentorship from BNB Chain’s tech and BD teams. It’s your chance to build momentum before the real action begins.

Then, from Nov 15–16, it’s time to build live in Buenos Aires. Collaborate side by side with founders, mentors, and ecosystem partners to bring your project to life. This is where ideas turn into working products.

Selected standout projects from the hackathon will also be invited to present at BNB Chain Demo Night during DevConnect, a showcase in front of investors, partners, and the broader Web3 community.

Ready to find your team and get mentorship from the BNB Chain team? Apply here to get a chance to join the pre-hackathon activities.
