Rock Technolabs Organized Coding Hackathon 2022
6 TEAMS. 4 HOURS. ONE HACKATHON
Rock Technolabs organized its first hackathon in 2022 to gather and share, a place to unlock the potential in each of us, all while having fun.
What Is a Hackathon?
We’re glad you asked. A hackathon isn’t about compromising security or hacking into computers. Rather, it’s an opportunity for our employees to take a day to work together to unleash their logical talent and creativity and see their ideas bloom.
Also, the main motto of organizing this Hackathon was to provide an opportunity to engage employees in a time-bound competitive event that promotes coding skill development, drives innovation, and imparts corporate culture.
Phase 1 of Rock Hackathon 2022 took place on 28th May 2022 with 3 rounds where the first 2 rounds were open discussion and 3rd round was conducted online. We had special rules to track the score, count down timer and supervisors for each teams!
Out of all our employees came up with, our organizers selected the 6 teams (roughly 5 people each) who worked diligently throughout the day to win the title of Phase 1.
It is worth mentioning the team names, as they describe a strong presence of individuals representing their diverse skills in their own fields.
Rock Hackathon 2022 Teams
⦁ Team Rock Brain Hackers – Ashwin (Team Leader)
⦁ Team Mind Martians – Pushpa (Team Leader)
⦁ Team Full Stack Squad – Bhavesh (Team Leader)
⦁ Team Coding Brigadiers – Ravi (Team Leader)
⦁ Team Mindspeak Molecules – Ambrish (Team Leader)

The real enjoyment is when you make organizing fun. Create a carefree environment for your participants and other members to work within. Keep the atmosphere light by clicking pictures, appreciating small achievements, holding fun activities, and keeping team members engaged with a clear objective in mind! All of this will help you see amazing results.
There Can Only Be One Winner (or Six)
Just as those initial 6 teams had to be whittled down to 3 teams till the final round, only one of the 3 would be crowned victorious. One runner-up team was selected for second place. Fullstack Squad team won Rock Hackathon 2022 Phase 1 & the Flint codes was runners up!
This was our journey with Hackathon Phase 1! Where else can you feel excited, motivated, nervous, tired, rushed, enlightened, passionate, and accomplished, all within 3 to 4 hours?
