Make breakthroughs by bringing NU research to market. The DATA Initiative and AI Skunkworks challenge you to form an interdisciplinary team to explore novel applications and solutions.

CHALLENGE

We are excited to announce the hackathon is now open to submissions for product prototypes developed from research conducted by both students and faculty at Northeastern University. Signup as a Team of up to 4 people or individually and we will match you with a Team. Special recognition is given for teams whose members come from multiple home colleges.
