Description
TheBuidlathon is a 10-day innovation sprint designed to empower African builders to move from idea to execution — producing sustainable, protocol-native products with real-world impact. This hackathon blends learning, mentorship, and competition into a single launchpad for web3 founders, dedicated to turning protocol-native ideas into self-sustaining ventures. Unlike typical hackathons, TheBuidlathon marks the beginning of a structured product incubation journey. We identify promising teams, support real-world problem validation, and offer mentorship, infrastructure, and business modeling to build lasting solutions.
