Want to help us throw the boldest hackathon in Canada?

Hey !

We’re teaming up with Founded in Canada to throw something big this fall—and we want you in the room before anyone else.

We’re putting together a hackathon called CTRL+ALT+BUILD. But this isn’t your average hackathon. It’s a 24-hour AI-fueled sprint where founders, hackers, designers, creatives, and policy nerds tackle real Canadian problems with real Canadian tools. You’ll meet startup leaders, flex your skills, and build something that actually matters—in one wild weekend.

Who we're looking for now: 🔥 We're pulling together a small crew to help us shape and run this event. You'll get insider access, creative input, and the kind of experience that actually belongs on a resume.

If you're fired up about building real things, want to make a difference in your community, and are curious about how AI can be used for good—we want to talk to you.

Whether you're a student with big ideas, someone who’s tired of the same old career advice, or just the kind of person who says "why not me?" when they see an opportunity—this is your moment.

About Founded in Canada: FIC is a national community of Canadian founders and indie builders creating what’s next. They back bold ideas and bring underrepresented voices into the spotlight. This event? It’s their kind of chaos.

Want in? Book a quick chat with us to learn more and get involved.

Let’s build where we live. Let’s build better.
