Southern Miss Hatchathon ??
Students from across disciplines joined forces, blending tech, design, business, and marketing skills to tackle real-world challenges.
This year’s theme, Reclaiming Time with Generative AI, challenged teams to rethink productivity and design tools that simplify life and boost efficiency.
Guided by industry mentors and fueled by creativity, the teams were ready to innovate—and inspire us all with live demos of their solutions!
