OOH26 Participation

Issued by Otinga.io

Awarded to everyone who rolled up their sleeves for OOH26 — Otinga's internal hackathon about running better hackathons. (Meta? Extremely.) In the week beforehand, participants piled in ideas and cross-pollinated shamelessly; then, on the 22 May 2026 build day, they teamed up (or went gloriously solo) to champion an idea and push a real hackathon improvement forward. Whether the focus was automating the boring bits, weaving in AI tooling, delighting participants, or making organisers' lives easier, every participant helped move us towards near-complete automation of the hackathon process. Turning hackathon know-how into hackathon magic.
