BNB Chain x HackMIT 2022: Embracing the Young Builders

HackMIT is one of the largest undergraduate hackathons in the world, which typically brings in over 1000 students to the MIT campus each fall.

As a weekend-long event, thousands of students from around the world come together to work on intriguing software or hardware projects.

This year, HackMIT is back to being fully in-person at MIT's campus during the weekend of October 1st. Students will be building, learning, and creating technology projects from scratch.

BNB Chain is proud to sponsor HackMIT this year. From Oct.1 to Oct.2, besides a 24-hour hackathon, there will be technical mentor orientation, tech talks, mini events to best help our young builders to implement their creative ideas and as they help build Web3. We will bring you the latest technological advances on BNB Chain, such as zkBNB, AvengerDAO and more.

There are four tracks in the hackathon, including Education, New Frontiers, Entertainment and Sustainability. The top project in each track will be awarded a prize.
