We welcome projects that align with the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and leverage blockchain technology to address real-world challenges. Projects of all stages are welcome, but a final working demo should be available by the end of the hackathon.

Hackathon winners share a part of the grand prize pool, which includes equity-free rewards, funding to help scale your business, and a complimentary speaking opportunity at the BGAwards . Additional benefits may be announced—stay tuned!

Participation is free, and the selection process is based on merit. The grand prize is equity-free, and jury members may also extend investment offers beyond the prize grant.

To apply for the Sustainable Innovation Summit: The 17 SDGs Challenge, submit your application through the provided link. Once your submission is received, the Blockchain for Good Review Committee will evaluate it alongside other entries. All applicants will be informed of the next steps via email and Telegram.

We ask for a video to demonstrate your product in real time, showcasing its value for the hackathon. Feel free to use any device—production quality isn't a priority, but seeing your product in action is key. We are particularly interested in projects that use blockchain technology to solve real-world issues in line with the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

Yes, you can modify or update your submission after it has been sent. Please avoid submitting multiple entries. Once your project is successfully submitted, you’ll receive a confirmation email with an update link. The deadline for updates is 25 October 2024 at 11:00 PM UTC+8.
