After Hackpoly... What's Next?
Hello!
Here is an opportunity to take your hackpoly project to the next level...and get some money!
Poly Founders is hosting it's annual startup challenge where teams submit a business idea and we walk them through the process of writting a business plan, perfecting the pitch, scaling the product-- all for free.
If you already have a prototype from hackpoly that you think people would buy, you're already half way to winning the $10,000 in prize money at the Bronco Startup Challenge. Thats right... $10,000. Not a typo.

Opportunity awaits... are you going to act?
