Wonderinghow it works?

Here's what to know before you take your first step.

Who can join?

The hackathon is open to children and relatives of Quest Group employees, aged 20–25. Full eligibility rules will be shared in the official call.

Can I join as a team?

Yes! Join solo or in a team of up to 3. The team leader must be a child or relative of a Quest Group employee — teammates can be friends, classmates or anyone you’d love to build with. Only the leader needs to register interest.

Do I need to be an AI expert?

Nope. You don’t need to be an AI pro. Curiosity and a willingness to experiment are a solid start. Official eligibility details will be in the call.

What kind of ideas can I submit?

Anything that uses AI to make something better — a process, a service or an experience across Quest Group companies. Think useful, not just futuristic. The five tracks are a great place to start.

Do I need a finished idea?

Not at all. Start with a problem, a rough idea or even a question. If selected, you’ll get time and mentor support to develop it.

When is the final event?

The evaluation is planned to finish by 1 April. Demo Day and the winner announcement will take place after that; the date is still TBC.
