    Hackathons and innovation programs in Monterrey

    Mobil3 designs and runs corporate hackathons, innovation challenges, university programs and developer adoption programs in Monterrey and across Nuevo León. Each program is built around one business goal, run on the ground by our team, and closed with a report measured against the KPIs agreed at the start.

    Why Monterrey

    Monterrey concentrates corporate headquarters, industrial companies going through digital transformation and universities with large engineering programs. That makes it the right city for innovation challenges where a company brings a real business problem and students and developers build solutions against it.

    How a program runs

    2. Design

      Program format, participants, KPIs and deliverables, agreed in plain terms before anything is booked.

    3. Run

      Recruitment, operations, mentors and judges, with our team on the ground.

    4. Report

      Who took part, what got built and what came out, measured against the KPIs agreed at the start.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do you organize a corporate hackathon in Monterrey?

    Mobil3 runs it in four steps: discovery of the business problem and audience (usually two weeks), program design with KPIs and deliverables, operation in Monterrey 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.

    Can a hackathon in Monterrey be built around our company's problem?

    Yes. That is the core of an innovation challenge. Your team brings a real problem, Mobil3 turns it into a challenge brief, recruits the right students and developers, and runs the program so the solutions come back to your team with the teams that built them.

    What does a company get at the end of a program in Monterrey?

    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 solutions to the challenge, qualified participants, developer adoption and the relationships opened with local universities.

    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.
