Saturday 6/6: Beta University X Nebius Agent Native Company Hackathon
Build with Nebius on Agentic workflow with 3K Cash Prizes!
Tracks:
🤖 Autonomous GTM & Operations: Agents running core business functions end-to-end (sales, support, finance, HR) or supercharging the revenue engine.
⚡ MVP Speed-Run: Lightning-fast execution of high-utility agent tools or interfaces deployed where users live (iMessage, WhatsApp, Slack).
🧠 Next-Gen Infrastructure & Context: Multi-agent orchestration, specialized infrastructure moats, and self-correcting enterprise workflows.
🃏 Wildcard (Open Category): Any agent-native concept solving an intense, real-world problem.
Saturday 6/20: Beta Fund X Antler Physical AI Hackathon
Build your Physical AI and win a cash prize from Beta Fund and a residency program opportunity from Antler
Saturday 6/27: AMD X Beta Fund AI Agent Hackathon
Tracks:
🤖 Autonomous Task Agents: Agents that plan, reason, and execute multi-step tasks end-to-end without human intervention — research, coding, analysis, or any complex workflow.
⚡ High-Performance Agent Infrastructure: Build the picks and shovels: faster inference, efficient orchestration, memory systems, or tooling that makes agents run faster and cheaper at scale.
🏭 Vertical AI Agents: Domain-specific agents for healthcare, finance, legal, or education. Deep expertise is baked into an agent that replaces specialized knowledge work.
🔗 Multi-Agent Collaboration: Agent networks where multiple specialized agents delegate, cross-check, and self-correct to tackle problems no single agent could handle alone.
💼 Agentic Workflow Automation Replace repetitive knowledge work entirely — email triage, scheduling, research, reporting, or any cognitive task that currently takes a human hour a day.
🃏 Wildcard: Any agent application outside these tracks. If it’s useful and agent-powered, build it.
Join the Builders Club, the official Discord hub for future Beta Fund Hackathons.
We are centralizing a high-signal community of founders and engineers. This isn’t just another chat server—it is the direct pipeline to our investment team and ecosystem partners.
What’s on the line:
Direct Investment: On-the-spot investment checks for exceptional projects.
Hardware & Capital: High-tier prizes including Cash, Mac Minis, and more.
GTM Support: Direct access to Beta Fund’s resources to help you scale and move from hack to startup.

Cheers,
Beta University Team
