This November, ISM University is hosting a student innovation marathon unlike any other – a place where anyone, from any discipline, can turn ideas into impact without writing a single line of code. Vibe Coding Hackathon, happening November 24–28, invites curious, creative, and ambitious students to collaborate, build, and solve real-world challenges using the latest AI-powered tools.
Forget the stereotypes: this is not a coding hackathon. Whether you’re studying business, design, psychology, communication, or economics, you’re welcome – even if you’ve never coded before!
“Sometimes all it takes is an idea and the courage to start – within days, you can build something that changes lives. Hackathons transform theoretical knowledge into action and teams into lifelong friends,” says Dr. Eigirdas Žemaitis, Head of Entrepreneurship and Innovation programme at ISM.
Join Solo or as a Team – We’ll Help You Match!
Don’t have a team? Don’t worry. Just apply solo, and we’ll connect you with other participants who share your interests. You’ll get to form a group or find collaborators at the event. Teamwork, mentoring, and project matching are at the heart of the hackathon experience.
What is “vibecoding,” and why is it trending?
Vibecoding is the latest AI-powered trend–students use powerful platforms and intuitive tools to launch MVPs (minimum viable products) faster than ever. Leveraging AI, no-code, and voice-based technology, you can build functioning digital solutions without deep technical expertise. The hackathon provides all the resources, mentorship, and energy needed to turn fresh ideas into real, market-ready results.
“Today, vibecoding is changing the game–students can build amazing products or apps with AI and no-code platforms, all in just a few days. It’s not about being a coder, it’s about thinking creatively and acting fast. If you’re creative, motivated, and want to try something new, this event is your chance,” says Vaida Bitvinskė, event organizer and ISM lecturer.
