Adobe India Hackathon 2025 is Here – Win MacBooks, iPads, Internships & More!

You really shouldn't miss this if you enjoy participating in hackathons, coding, or creating cool things.

"Connecting the Dots," Adobe's premier hackathon, is back and this time it's bigger, bolder, and full of incredible prizes.

What if, like a clever companion, your PDFs could converse, comprehend what you're reading, link concepts, and provide you with insights? Adobe wants you to build precisely that. 🔥

💡 What is the difficulty?

You're going to change how we use PDFs. Instead of just plain boring text, think of documents that are intelligent, insightful, and interactive. Adobe wants us to use technology and creativity to create a more intelligent reading experience.

📆 Schedule & Rounds

The competition is set up as follows:

✅ Demo Period (June 17–July 11)

Just for practice; not evaluated. Become familiar with the platform.

✅ First Round: Coding + MCQ (Jul 11)

15 multiple-choice questions plus one coding question

Topics: problem-solving, logic, and DSA

One-hour time limit

Every team member needs to take part.

The average of each member's score is your team's score.

✅ Build & Connect, Round 2 (July 14–28)

This is the real deal! With an emphasis on document comprehension and semantic linking, you will construct the fundamental framework that enables your clever PDF concept to function.

Round 3: Prototype (August 5–August 19)

Make a web-based prototype of your system. It should be possible for users to peruse documents, extract insights from the content, and receive intelligent recommendations. Here, UX is important

🏁 Grand Finale on September 5
At Adobe HQ in Noida, top teams will make live presentations of their finished prototypes! Adobe covers travel and lodging in full. Quite awesome, isn't it?
