This is the largest student hackathon in Mexico. Hosted by Tec de Monterrey, ranked 5 stars by QS, in the top 140 universities worldwide and top 10 in Latin America.
Expect great things
We’ll have mentors from different companies, and a great atmosphere for learning something new. We’ll have many activities and ways to communicate to make the best out of this event for you!
All students welcome!
Whether it's your first hackathon or you're an experienced hacker, HackMTY is perfect for you and there's no entry fee.
Of course there will be prizes although it isn’t all about winning but what you learn and build during those 24 hours. But don’t worry there will be a panel of judges that will select the three best hacks based on creativity, technical difficulty, design, and usefulness. Prizes for first, second and third place TBA. Sponsors also offer prizes for specific criteria, which they judge themselves.

Unfortunately, this year we can’t provide travel reimbursements and we know this is a big issue for people travelling from outside of Mexico, but we encourage you to try and come down to the event if it is possible for you. If you can’t make it, hopefully we’ll be expecting you next year when our goal is to make travel reimbursements possible.
