Putting together a team for your next Hackathon is an obvious but important step. When it comes to having a successful outcome at any Hackathon, having the right people on your team can have a huge effect on your final project demo. To create a successful “Dream Team” here are a few ideas to help jumpstart the process.
Whether you decide to attend alone or have a team already built, all ages, genders, and skill levels are welcome to come to a Hackathon. Based on your project idea, you can take advantage and have a full team, or work solo.
If you decide to join or come with a group, it is important to be surrounded by people you can easily get along with, but is also a diverse and very rounded team. This means, have a group of people that can each bring something different to the table without having clashing personalities that do not get along.
If you’re a developer looking to improve your skills, a student wanting to get a foot in the door, a serious designer, or an entrepreneur with a great idea, there is always a place for you to work.
If you find people you connect with and your ideas or personalities seem to click, you are more likely to succeed and come out with the ideal Hackathon “Dream Team.”
