Clyntech Hackathon 2025

Where Green Meets Smart

The Clyntech Hackathon is a unique innovation platform designed to bring together green and tech innovators to collaboratively develop impactful cleantech solutions.

Unlike traditional hackathons, this event welcomes individuals and early-stage teams — no fully formed startups required.

Whether you bring a green innovation that reduces emissions, conserves resources or improves environmental quality, or a tech solution that supports it, this is your chance to co-create, experiment and connect to drive measurable environmental impact.
