Benefit of Submitting Your Idea Early

The perks of submitting your ideas early are:

1. Early Access to Feedback From the Alpha Team, Before Evaluation Phase Begins.
The hackathon team is currently looking over the submitted ideas and giving ideas’ owners personalized feedback on how they can improve their project. As a result, by receiving feedback, you can improve and curate your idea to be as perfect as you can once we reach the deadline for Idea Submission (May 10th, at 00:00 UTC).

2. Ease in connecting and finding members for your team
Various skilled members are currently looking for a team to join. By having your idea posted, which can only be a rough idea, you may fascinate other members to give out their thoughts, feedback, or even ask to onboard your team.

🗣 “Did you know that you can STILL EDIT your submitted idea on Eventornado?”

Once submitted, you can click “Edit Idea” on the My Idea page. So why wait, submit your idea now! It doesn’t have to be perfect.
