BUILDā23?
BUILD is an event bridging students' passion for new and emerging technologies and positive social impact. Within BUILDā23, participants are to use any form of new technology (e.g. Blockchain, AI, Nanotechnology) to create a hack addressing one of the global issue tracks.
Code + No-code inclusivity
We believe that building can take place in many forms - code or no-code. In BUILDā23, there are two routes for every track: technical and non-technical.
Whether you are a designer, debater, writer, or other, you are welcome to attend BUILDā23 through the non-technical route. If you are a coder, then weād recommend the technical route. If you are introductory to code, we have workshops of all levels to accommodate!
Join and get inspired by industry leaders around the world.
