Call for Judges

Judges for Innovista Hackathon 1.0 must possess a strong professional background in either healthcare technology or financial innovation, with a clear track record of contributing to forward-thinking solutions in their domain. While their degrees will come into play, however, we are interested in professionals with experience evaluating startups, tech projects, or research initiatives, particularly those at the intersection of emerging technologies such as AI, blockchain, biotech, digital health, or fintech. Ideal candidates must demonstrate the ability to assess innovation not just for technical merit but also for societal impact, ethical grounding, and scalability. Additionally, judges must be impartial, able to provide constructive feedback, and committed to upholding the integrity and collaborative spirit of the event. A history of mentoring or engagement with hackathons, accelerators, or innovation ecosystems is a valuable plus.
