Mobil3 designs and runs hackathons, innovation challenges, university programs and developer adoption programs in Guadalajara and across Jalisco. Companies and institutions get a program built around one goal, run on the ground by our team, and a report measured against the KPIs agreed at the start.
Guadalajara combines a large base of software engineers, public universities with strong engineering programs, and state innovation offices that run their own programs. Mobil3 already works with public innovation offices in Guadalajara, so a company arriving in Jalisco starts with the local relationships in place instead of building them from zero.

Frequently asked questions
How do you organize a hackathon in Guadalajara?
Mobil3 runs it in four steps: discovery of the goal and audience (usually two weeks), program design with KPIs and deliverables, operation in Guadalajara with recruitment, mentors and judges, and a final report measured against the agreed KPIs. You send a written request and we reply with a proposal.
Does Mobil3 work with universities and government in Jalisco?
Yes. Mobil3 works with public innovation offices in Guadalajara and runs programs with universities in Jalisco. Programs for public institutions are fixed-scope, with bilingual deliverables and documentation built for procurement, audit and public reporting.
What does a company get at the end of a program in Guadalajara?
A report of who took part, what got built and what came out, measured against the KPIs agreed before the program started. Depending on the goal, that includes developer adoption, qualified participants, projects built with your product and the relationships opened with local universities and institutions.
Are Mobil3 programs free for students and developers?
Yes. Programs are free for students, developers and founders, and Mobil3 never takes equity. The company or institution behind the program covers its cost. Participants get mentorship, prizes when the program includes them, startup perks from partner programs and direct access to the companies involved.
