The team disperses. The idea disappears.
We built Hack-Nation to solve exactly that.
Here's what happens after our hackathon 🧵

Great to hear from our @databricks speaker Kathirga at MIT
Exactly the kind of perspective that inspires builders to think bigger, move faster, and connect cutting-edge AI to real-world impact.
Thank you for your talk!
