Have you ever had an idea that you just knew could take your business to the next level? You have probably sketched it out on a napkin or kept it in the back of your mind, but turning that idea into a reality can be a daunting task. That's where Ghost Founder's prototyping hackathon comes in.

You may be a business owner, CIO, CTO, CEO, or entrepreneur who has a game-changing idea but doesn't know where to start. You have ongoing daily operations and responsibilities and don’t want to distract your team by introducing too many new products. You're comfortable with the status quo, but you know there's more potential to unlock.

Still, a new idea is nagging you. You need to take action or else you may miss the boat. Competitors may be moving faster than you. Advances in tech and a global economy that is changing faster than ever bring you some sleepless nights. You need a fast and effective way to turn your idea into a tangible prototype. You desire to bring your idea to life so you can get buy-in from your peers, investors, and potential customers. People, unfortunately, lack imagination, and showing up with anything other than a mostly functional prototype may hurt your chances of success.

You set a goal. Your goal is to quickly create a high-quality prototype that accurately represents your idea and sets you up for success. You need this done fast, and you don’t have a mint to spend on it either.

The road to turning an idea into a prototype is full of obstacles, you have a lack of resources, you don’t know how to make this thing, or you simply don’t have time. Most ideas entail software, design, and hardware. Where can you find a single source provider that can tackle all these facets? Engaging multiple firms to complete the project could take months and would be very expensive.

Enter Ghost Founder's prototyping hackathon. We can take your idea from a napkin drawing to a fully-realized prototype in just one day! Our team of expert hardware and software engineers, designers, and even a physicist work with you to refine your product idea and create a high-quality prototype that brings your invention to life immediately.

The hackathon includes high-level research of competitors in the market, a pitch deck and elevator pitch to communicate your product idea, naming ideas, early-stage mockups, wireframes, and a clickable mockup for user testing. We also provide CAD drawings to create a 3D model, 3D prints to produce a physical prototype, and a proof-of-concept functional prototype (where applicable).

With your prototype in hand, you have the potential to disrupt the market and achieve your goals in business and in life. Our hackathon can help you take the first step toward making this dream of yours a reality.

Don't let obstacles get in the way of bringing your idea to life. We're here to help! Contact us today to book your prototyping hackathon and take the first step toward achieving your goals.
