NEAR - Inter-University Hacker House

Join us at the Inter-University Hackerhouse on March 13, hosted by NFT Soho and powered by NEAR DevHub and Hackbox. It will be a day packed with blockchain and Web3 exploration, perfect for both seasoned devs and those just starting out. 

We've got NEAR Protocol developers and investors coming to share their stories and insights, making it a great spot to learn from the best. And the best part? It's completely free for everyone! We're also offering NEAR-sponsored bounties for every team submission from the event.

So, if you're into coding, blockchain, or just want to see what the buzz is about, come hang out with us. It's going to be a day of learning, networking, and building cool stuff. See you there!
