Grand Champion of Hack@10 2023

As someone new to the hackathon scene, I decided to challenge myself by leading a team at an international AI-themed hackathon, Hack@10, hosted by Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN). Alongside my teammates, Muhammad Hakim and Haris Azhari, we aimed to gather as much knowledge and experience from this event as possible.

From the moment I registered for this hackathon, I knew the standards were high, with top local and international universities participating, such as the National University of Singapore (NUS). Consequently, we poured our hearts and souls into creating a viable solution. While we faced numerous failures and technical challenges, quitting was never an option. We continued to iterate and refine our solution with guidance from our mentors and advisory lecturers. Under my leadership, we tackled obstacles one by one, eventually completing and refining our solution into a working prototype.

I am humbled to announce that our team was officially declared the grand champion🏆 among total of 226 participants. The knowledge and experience gained from this event are invaluable.

A special thanks goes to my teammates, lecturers, mentors, and everyone who supported us from the outset. Congratulations to all other winners and to the wonderful people at Hack@10 for organizing such a great event.

This victory is just the beginning. With an unwavering drive for excellence, my team and I are committed to participating in future hackathons.
