GlobeHack 2026: Arizona’s First Go-To-Market Hackathon

GlobeHack 2026 is a two-day, high-intensity Go-To-Market (GTM) Hackathon organized by the Global Career Network (GCN), co-hosted with the ACM Chapter at ASU. Scheduled for April 18-19, 2026, this event is designed to bridge technical innovation with strategic business execution by challenging students to solve real-world market-entry and growth problems provided by industry partners.

Unlike traditional hackathons that focus solely on product development or coding, GlobeHack emphasizes the complete process of bringing a solution to market. Participants will develop execution-ready go-to-market strategies addressing live business challenges. These challenges may include customer segmentation, value proposition design, pricing strategy, distribution channels, competitive positioning, and measurable growth planning.

Over the course of two intensive days, teams will:

Engage in structured problem-solving within a time-bound environment

Receive mentorship from founders, GTM leaders, and industry professionals

Participate in milestone reviews and feedback sessions

Develop a final strategic pitch and implementation roadmap

Present solutions to a judging panel composed of corporate partners and practitioners
