Hackathons will replace LinkedIn.
Hereโs why I encourage every Founder, aspiring employee, and student to become involved with local hackathons, and meetups.
Last week at series of hackathons and meetups, I met representatives from Coinbase, Y Combinator, NVIDIA, Andreessen Horowitz, Upstash, Firecrawl, and more.
All for free.
As a Founder, I got to share what Iโm building with people who could seriously impact the future of my startup. That kind of face to face opportunity is rare on LinkedIn.
For potential employees or students, hackathons let you network by showing what you can do.
Thereโs no better way to connect with mentors, future teammates, or even a future boss.
Remember: People hire and work with people they know. Hackathons can help you meet those people.
So get out from behind the screen and go build at a Hackathon!
The people you meet could change your career. ๐
