The mentoring sessions were especially important for us, particularly the constructive feedback, as it’s one of the most useful things in building a startup. As the book "The Lean Startup" states: learning is the unit of progress for a startup.

The part where you turned the mentors into judges without us knowing was perfection. This was my 60th hackathon, and this was the first time I had such an amazing experience. It made us realize that we should always focus on how to behave not only in front of the judges but toward everyone.

What I liked the most was the feedback from the mentors and the judges as well as the chance to pitch in front of them. This was significant for us as it served as a validation of our business idea.

The part I enjoyed most was the presentation segment, where we exchanged questions and advice for finding solutions to our problems.
