About This Event
An invite-only sprint; build the future of AI and Hardware. Selected teams will be considered for Afore Capital’s pre-seed program ($500k–$2M+).
Following the success of Agent Foundry and A New Agent, The Droids Strike Back is the second installment in our trilogy of hackathons — pushing the frontier at the intersection of AI and hardware. This exclusive gathering convenes top founders, ambitious developers, and frontier researchers to create venture-scale products.
Over one high-energy weekend, 200+ hand-selected builders will design, prototype, and deploy systems that combine AI with robotics and hardware integrations — from embodied AI agents to next-generation robotic platforms to state of the art simulations. Or continue building AI systems and software if hardware is not your forte.
💡 What to Expect
- Hands-on technical workshops & mentorship from industry leaders
- A showcase judged by top investors, operators, and AI experts
- $5,000 in prizes 🏆 plus recognition & fast-track opportunities into venture-scale products
This is where the most driven entrepreneurs will launch companies that shape the future of AI and robotics.
