About OlympAI Hackathon

OlympAI Hackathon is an annual Artificial Intelligence Hackathon designed for students in grades 6–12, fostering curiosity, analytical thinking, and technological expertise.
Focused on practical, project-based learning, OlympAI Hackathon challenges participants to dive into AI’s core principles, applications, and ethical considerations.
By working on real-world projects, students gain hands-on experience and develop a deeper understanding of AI while solving relevant, real-world challenges.
Building on our success, we have already conducted a Hackathon last year, which was met with great enthusiasm and participation, further strengthening our mission to nurture the next generation of AI innovators.
