One weekend. Four missions. A working AI prototype — and the chance to build what's next. We're proud to announce [Xathon](xathon.beyondx.co), an AI innovation challenge presented by BeyondX Lab that brings professionals and aspiring founders together to explore how AI can transform the physical world.
Over a hands-on Build & Validate workshop (19 Aug) and a two-day hack weekend (26–27 Sep), participants will pick a mission, form a team, and turn an idea into a working AI-assisted prototype — with community mentors and tools on hand.
There are four innovation missions to choose from:
- 🏙️ AI + Smart Cities: making cities more adaptive, efficient, and human
- 🎨 AI + Creator Economy: reshaping how we create, learn, and communicate
- 🚗 AI + Mobility / EV: reinventing movement in dense cities
- 🩺 AI + Health / Longevity: extending healthy human performance
Who should join?
💡 Professionals and aspiring founders with an idea worth building. You may come with your own team or sign up as an individual and get paired with like-minded builders.
What's in store for you?
- 🏆 Cash prizes and sponsor rewards
- Mentorship from community experts
- Investor and ecosystem access
- Media exposure
- Potential incubation pathway
The top three teams advance to showcase their solutions at BeyondXpo on 12 October, in front of industry leaders.
You bring the idea. Xathon gives you the weekend, the tools, and the stage to build it!
