For those taking part in TADHack remotely, for submitting a remote video pitch the format is:

  • 5 minutes maximum, this is a strict limit.
  • Introduce you / the team (and team name if you have one)
  • Introduce the hack / showcase name and a brief description
  • List the sponsor’s resources used in the hack (which sponsors should judge your hack)
  • Explain the hack, can be done through a simple presentation / demo / a little acting, whatever you / the team wants to do.

Please send your pitch video through by close of day 12th December (Saturday) to info (at) tadhack (dot) com by wetransfer. And as a back-up if you could also upload your video to YouTube –  this will ensure the video will be viewed by the judges no matter what happens. Also please send an email to info (at) tadhack (dot) com with the wetransfer URL, YouTube URL and details contained in your video so we get your entry judged by the right sponsors and we have all your information correct:

  • Wetransfer URL, YouTube URL
  • The team name and members (this can just be your name)
  • Hack / Showcase name and a brief description
  • List the sponsor’s resources used in the hack (which sponsors should judge your hack)

All hacks will be promoted on the TADHack YouTube channel, we want to write weblogs on all of them. TADHack is focused on promoting developers. If you have time and are able to draft a weblog about your entry in the coming weeks / months, that would be great. You can see others on the TADHack weblog. A suggested weblog structure is:

  • Introduce the team and their backgrounds, as well as the company if the entry is from a company;
  • Describe the hack, a deeper dive into how you created the hack and its functionality, for example the libraries used and some of the problems you faced;
  • Share any code / links / demos that are available; and
  • Any other information you think relevant.

Thanks to everyone who is planning to take part TADHack Paris, its going to be a special event. We want TADHack to help you grow your businesses.
