Tech For Her

Tech For HerBuilding real, shippable web apps that solve women's real problems — powered by GenSpark AI.Tech For Heris a fast-paced, in-person hackathon where students come together to turn a real problem facing a real woman — a sister, mother, friend, classmate, or neighbour — into a working web application, in a single day.This is not a workshop. You get tools, mentors, and time to build something that actually works and helps someone. Whether you are solving a problem in education, health, money, safety, or community — this is your runway.Jointly organized byMachine Learning BangladeshandHerWILL, supported byATB Jobs, Mutual Trust Bankand powered byGenSpark AI.Machine Learning Bangladesh (MLBD) is a leading AI community that has run the popular Build with AI Hack Days series across Bangladesh — including @DIU, @EMK, and @RUET on Devpost. Together with HerWILL, MLBD brings this same fast, hands-on building energy to a women-focused challenge.Participants get hands-on access toGenSpark AI, an all-in-one AI super-agent platform that gives you access to powerful AI models, plans, builds, and deploys apps for you — and can even create your presentation slides. You may also use other AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, etc.) for ideation so you don't burn extra credits, butGenSpark is the platform you must use to build your solution and create your presentation.No prior AI experience needed. Bring your laptop and your ideas. This hackathon is open exclusively tostudents of Asian University for Women (AUW); only those who have signed up can submit a project, one per team.Schedule — September 259:00 AM— Event starts: kickoff and hacking begins~3:00 PM— Hacking ends (may be extended to3:30 PMwith extra time)After hacking— Judging: 1.5 to 2 hours.

Interfering with another team's work is not.Be honest.Present only your own work and be truthful about what your app can and cannot do.Respect privacy and ethics.Build technology that protects users. Do not create anything that could harm, track, or expose anyone.Give everyone a voice.In your team, share tasks fairly and listen to each other's ideas.Follow the organizers' instructionsand venue or platform rules.Report issues.If you face or see any problem, tell an organizer immediately. All reports will be handled seriously and confidentially.Anyone who breaks the code of conduct may be warned, disqualified, or asked to leave the event.Tips for successStart small.Build one feature that works really well before adding more.Plan your time.Idea, then design, then build, then test, then present.Divide roles:frontend, backend, design, research, and presenter.Practice your demo at least twice.A working demo beats a long slide deck.Ask mentors for help.That's what they're here for!Remember: you don't need to build a perfect product. You need to build something that shows you understand a real problem and can turn an idea into a working solution. Be bold, be kind, and build with purpose. Good luck, andlet your WILL shape the future!
