I don't trust *Terms Apply and hackathon appearing together in any context. Business guys always want to capitalize on creatives' enthusiasm but end up triggering skepticism instead.
It basically means you have to chat with the Band of Angels and Originate.
For example, the Band's prize is in the form of seed funding. How exactly that looks might change based on the team.
For Originate it includes:
- the award is for in-kind investment of Originate services and not convertible to cash
- non-transferable
- resources will be assigned at Orignate's sole discretion
- work will be delivered from an Originate office
You don't have to accept any prizes that are given, it's just things we've put together to solve problems that arise when trying to take a company off the ground. I don't expect you to trust me, but I've been extremely involved with the Hacker Dojo, run a hacker house, and routinely fight against anything that takes advantage of hackers. I hope that helps
Garrett was my partner in crime for the second Hacker Fair at Hacker Dojo, and he's my cofounder for the hacker house we run. He's been a great volunteer at the Hacker Dojo as well. Not sure if my word counts for much, but he's an honest and trustworthy dude.
