Final call for submissions

There are only 3 days left to complete your submission for Hedera22: Hello Smart Contracts. Submissions close on May 16th at 11:45pm PT (Find out what time that is in your city). 

If you haven't started a submission yet, please do so now. (We’ll walk you through our submission form process if you need help.) And make sure all of your teammates are invited and have accepted their invitations to join your submission!  

Submission checklist 

Run through this list before you sit back from your project: 

  1. Are you creating a decentralized application, protocol, or developer tool that uses the Hedera Smart Contract Service or encourages the use of the Hedera Smart Contract Service? 

  2. Have you created a submission video? Remember to show your app working in 5-minutes or less. Be sure to check out this webinar for tips on how to create an effective pitch. 

  3. Did you include a link to your codebase within your submission form? We do encourage you to have a public repository (to make it easier for judging) but if you have a private repo, share it with the GitHub account, lina@swirldslabs.com (@HackathonHedera). 

  4. Are all of your teammates added to your submission? Remind them to accept the invitation! 

Be sure to read through the Rules more than once. Or better yet, have a friend or colleague provide a second pair of eyes to make sure you didn’t miss anything. 

What's next after the submissions are in?

  • Judging - May 18th - May 24th: During this time if judges have any questions about your project we will reach out to your team. 
  • Closing Ceremony - May 31st @ 7:30am PT:  This is where we will announce all the winners! 
  • Apply for funding and grants - We encourage every project to continue building even after the hackathon is over. For those of you who do decide to do this, you can apply for funding and grants through the HBAR Foundation here.  
  • Investor Pitch Session - June 1st @ 8:00am ET: At the close of the hackathon The HBAR Foundation will be reviwing all projects and inviting select ones to participate in an investor pitch session that will be open for the public to watch. RSVP and full details here

Goodluck to everyone and please reach out via discord or at lina@swirldslabs.com if you need any help from now until submissions close.
