404 Found Hackathon Problem Statements

404 Found is an exciting and inclusive event organised by btechnotes.in which is designed to foster creativity and innovation across all levels of student expertise. This dynamic event features three distinct tracks:

  • Ideathon: Exclusively for first-year students, this track encourages participants to present their innovative ideas and prototypes using Figma. It’s an opportunity for fresh minds to showcase their potential and creativity in a supportive environment.
  • Reimagathon: Open to both first- and second-year students, this track challenges participants to select an existing website and recreate it with their unique creative vision. It’s a chance to blend creativity with technical skills and push the boundaries of design and functionality.
  • Hackathon: This track is designed for second-, third-, and fourth-year students who are ready to tackle real-world problems. Participants will work on solving problem statements provided by us, bringing their technical knowledge and problem-solving abilities to the forefront.

404 Found is not just a competition; it’s a celebration of innovation, creativity, and collaboration. Here, students from various backgrounds come together to share ideas, reimagine possibilities, and create solutions that could shape the future. Join us in this journey of exploration and invention, where every idea has the potential to make a difference!
