There's lots of money spent on hackathon bounties but not much talking about getting a Return on Investment. Starting a 3-part series published on @paragraph exploring how no matter what stage of sponsorship you are at you can get some joy. https://paragraph.xyz/@developerjoy/measuring-hackathon-part-1

love this you mention "awareness" and i agree, it should be top of the funnel marketing towards devs but i feel like most teams sponsoring hackathons do that with the expectation of finding a new startup or project building for the long term in their ecosystem

What other focus should awareness have then brining developer long term into your ecosystem? I would say it’s relationship building. You want builders to know why they should build on your ecosystem in case they become serious. So you want to make sure you bring awareness. But building a relationship with them is equally important as a lot of teams decide where to build based on where they have a direct contact to the team and feel seen. Also, I believe it depends on the team. Some teams come to bigger hackathons to launch their product because they know winning means a lot of vcs will reach out without them having to do much work.

i agree but another problem about the traditional hackathon model is that they are short-lived, in 40hrs and there’s not much time to build a project and also a strong relationship with ppl around you it’s for this reason that /ethrome this year will happen at the end of 2 weeks of a popup city like event, where ppl are able not only to learn more but also really connect to each other and sponsors
