Steps 2-4 Find a team and build something great!

Step 2: Find or Build a Team

Usually, in a hackathon, there are two types of participants: those who already know what they want to build and those who want to help others build.

Depending on the situation, your next steps on Foundance are a bit different.

I want to help build someone else's idea

Since you don't yet have a team, it is essential you focus your efforts into finding the right idea and the right team.

Browse enrolled projects

The easiest way to identify projects aligned with your interests is by browsing projects by category. To do this, open the Event Page, select the Projects tab and chose the categories of interest.

Browse project by category

Additionally, you can apply a filter for those who are actively seeking members.

tip

If the projects which interest you don't have open roles, you can always request to join them or start chatting with the founder.

Identify open roles

As an alternative to filtering for projects with open roles on the Event page, you can visit the [Open Roles] page and filter roles by Event, Role and/or Skill.

Browse open roles by event

Once you identify a desired open role, follow the steps of joining a project.
