A total of 63 projects were sent from Turkey. Now, we're eagerly waiting for the hackathon results! 😍

🧑💻Istanbul HackerHub
Last month at HackerHub, we discussed strategies for winning hackathons and delved into the hackathon process from the perspective of the jury. We also had regular mentoring sessions.
This month, our HackerHub activities kept going at full speed. We offered mentoring to projects, covering both technical guidance and the crucial element of 'presentations' in the project evaluation process.
🌐We Also Supported The Projects With Online Mentorship!
We've been keeping our online mentoring sessions going strong. These sessions are essential to provide support for projects all across Turkey. We've connected our projects with a wonderful group of mentors, and together, we've been actively helping them grow. @uygunbodur, @kubarist, @_foreseon, @metadev5, @etodanik, @George_harrap, @betterCallGoktu, @WhiteMoonDev, @SolBridgeNW, @murtiblock!
Big shout out to our mentors! 🎉
We want to express our sincere gratitude to our mentors for their time and dedication in supporting our projects.
🤩 hub3 from Superteam Turkey Hits a $3 Million Volume 🤯

Valuable figures in the ecosystem supported hub3, a SocialFi app, and the project reached a volume of over $3 million.
Congratulations to hub3 team. 🎉 @SolBridgeNW @MrPerrex
