📌 About the event
The Emly AI OPENHACK 2026 is an elite, high-stakes development sprint focused on turning conceptual code into production-grade, open-source solutions. Supported by NASSCOM, this hackathon provides a localized platform for developers, system architects, and data engineers to build open-source tools that solve real-world problems.
Rather than building closed enterprise projects, teams must commit their code under open licenses, showcasing clean documentation, scalable software architecture, and public collaboration capabilities.
