Think we’d run out of quotes already? Not quite. Thanks Mahmud, we appreciate it!

A family of future thinkers, the Leveritts joined the day with one big question: what does the future of Portsmouth look like?

Their pitch brought it to life with robots, monorails, and brilliantly funny glimpses of a dystopian Portsmouth. It’s inspiring to see such young minds already thinking boldly about the future and how to shape it.

One of our challenge areas was “100”. As you might have guessed, it was intentionally vague, designed to push creativity.

Nazim and Jay absolutely ran with it, creating 100% BlackJack, a brilliant mash-up of a 2D platformer and Blackjack. Their heartfelt (and hilarious) presentation had the entire room laughing out loud.

Social good is at the heart of Hack Pompey, and no team embodied that spirit more than the minds behind GoKind: Mahmud, Thomas, Bwambale, and Warren.

They created an app designed to connect people across Portsmouth through simple acts of kindness, bringing the community closer together.

It was an incredibly close race, decided by a single late vote but Shreya and Katie took the runner-up spot, but were realistically joint winners of the People’s Choice Award.

They built an impressive “Together” dashboard designed to create more personalised, meaningful experiences for friends navigating long-distance relationships.

Who remembers the one-man army, Leon, taking home the People's Choice Award as a solo participant? We could describe the project, or you could see for yourself!

An incredible effort to go solo and still come out on top.

Naturally we thought the event was incredible, but what really matters is what our attendees had to say, thanks for the kind words Nazim!
