Team names and LSET registration are required for all teams.
The LSET team page listing should have the following:
All projects should be submitted to the hackathon LSET account (TBA) before judging begins on Sunday, November 26th, 2023, at 2:00 p.m. GMT. Disqualification will result from failure to submit. The team repository should be committed regularly throughout the hackathon. A team that commits its entire repository near the end of the hackathon, Sunday, November 26th, 2023, could be disqualified for violating a rule.
All project submissions will be randomly code-reviewed. All applications will undergo random checks by code reviewers. Projects chosen as finalists by the judges will undergo a thorough code review process to ensure the code is original and created specifically for the hackathon.
When development ends, at least one member from each team will meet with the judging team to review their submissions and verify that their LSET pages have been updated correctly.
By participating in the hackathon and agreeing to these terms and conditions, you commit to engaging with the London School of Emerging Technology's social media platforms in the following ways:
By participating in the hackathon and engaging with LSET's social media platforms in the ways outlined above, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these terms and conditions. Failure to comply with these terms may result in the termination of your participation in the hackathon.

Includes creativity and originality of the idea
How technically impressive was the hack? Did it use a clever technique, or did it use many different components? Did the work involved make you go “Wow”? If no code: Is the technological use impressive? Is the ideation’s plan to use tech clear?
Did the team put thought into the user experience? How well designed is the interface? For a website, this might be about how beautiful the CSS or graphics are. Is it easy to use or does it use a cool interface?
Inspire innovation in the next generation of students. Does it do something entirely novel, or at least take a fresh approach to an old problem? This category will be based solely on the idea behind your project, regardless of functionality.
We look for hacks that have a large social impact. Is the hack impactful? Does it fulfil a real need people have? This category will be based on the idea behind your project and its planned functionality (not necessarily fully working).
We look for new and original ideas. We want hackers to think outside the box, but we value practicality. Is this project implementable and practical in the next 3-5 years? This category will be based on both the idea & functionality behind your project. Includes how well the idea was executed by the developer.
Includes the extent to which the app can help businesses grow.
Assess the potential scalability of the project. Can it handle increased user loads and data volumes? Is it built in a way that allows for easy expansion and adaptation in the future?
