Mentor at Župný hackathon: a 24-hour regional hackathon
Trnava | 22-23 May 2026

Župný hackathon is a 24-hour regional hackathon in Trnava, organized by KIRA (the Regional Innovation Development Agency) under the theme of making the Trnava Region a home for talent.

I joined as a mentor, supporting teams through the event with design thinking, UX, proof of concept, and pitch preparation, and helping them check that they were solving the right problem before they built. I drew on six years of design thinking to ask good questions, give honest feedback, and help turn ideas into projects.
