Hyperdrive, the latest edition of Solana’s online global hackathon, is here! Solana’s global hackathons have been the birthplace of legendary projects such as StepN, Underdog, Tensor, and Dialect, among others.

One thing missing from that list is an Indian project. Perhaps yours could be the next one?

Superteam India is excited to announce a special local prize track for Indian teams that submit to Hyperdrive! Stand a chance to win from a total prize pool of ₹4,75,000 across three spots. These prizes are exclusive of the $1 Million up for grabs as part of the Global Hackathon! This means as an Indian team submitting to Hyperdrive, the chances of you winning a prize are much higher since you’ll be competing on both global and national levels.
