AI Marketing Hackathon
30 Aug 2026 · 11:00–16:00 · In 3 days
Free to request, but every registration is approved by the hosts. Partners: COLABS, Salesflo; AI credits via Google for Startups.
A one-afternoon build sprint positioned as an unofficial warm-up to LEAP 2026, aimed at marketers who have never opened a code editor. Teams form on the day around pitched ideas — a product being launched or a brand that has gone quiet — then use agentic AI tools to build a complete campaign: positioning, social, creative and the site that carries it. The day opens with a briefing and a beginner masterclass on working inside an IDE with an AI agent, followed by just over two hours of building with mentors on the floor, and two-minute team demos judged on the work rather than the polish. Prayer breaks are built into the schedule. Prizes are Google Gemini credits (8,000 / 5,000 / 3,000 USD) plus Grona subscriptions. Hosted by Ali Sohail and Saad Sohail of Grona, with COLABS and Salesflo as partners and AI credits via Google for Startups. No prior experience needed; bring a laptop. Attendance is free of charge but each registration is subject to host approval.
