At ColorCloud, hackathons are all about teamwork, creativity and fun! You experiment, iterate, fail, learn, and grow – all in one day. You team up with others and work together within a limited time to build a solution, prototype, or idea around a specific challenge.
In 2026 the hackathon will be all about Copilot Studio
solutions.
This year’s theme is Chrono: time is not just a constraint, but part of the challenge
itself.
The hackathon is open to all skill levels and backgrounds. Whether you’re new to Copilot Studio or already an experienced builder, you’ll gain hands-on experience across:
Not much! Bring your laptop, an open mind and motivation to try out new stuff! You’ll get guidance, inspiration, tools, and support throughout the day.
Absolutely! A hackathon is not a competition for the “best code” or the “most complex solution”. A hackathon thrives on diversity! Everyone brings their own strengths, learns from the team, and grows together – no matter their background or experience level.
We kick off together by diving into the challenge and setting a shared direction for the day. Each team starts with the same time budget — how you use it, trade it, or risk it will shape your journey.
Then you come together in diverse and colorful teams and start turning ideas into something real. Throughout the day, you explore, experiment, discuss, and build – supported by our hackathon leaders whenever questions come up. Collaboration, creativity, and having fun are just as important as the solution itself. At the end of the day, each team presents their idea and prototype. A jury selects a winning team, and the winners take home a prize.
At the Copilot Studio – Chrono Hackathon, you’ll learn by building. You gain hands-on experience with Copilot Studio, explore agentic AI concepts, and apply advanced design, testing, and validation techniques in a real team setting.
Beyond tech, you sharpen your collaboration and decision-making skills and learn how to work strategically under time pressure. You’ll leave with new skills, fresh ideas, valuable connections – and a prototype you built yourself. And who knows: maybe even a prize.
Because a hackathon…
You’ll leave with new skills, new connections, and fresh inspiration.
