Hack-a-ton With Friends - Two Day Event on Nov 14/15, 2026
Want to build something real in a 24 hours?
Introducing Hack-a-ton With Friends, the first hackathon by SMIT Club: a student-run, hackathon hosted at NAIT designed specifically for students who've never set foot in a hackathon before.
Up to 100 post-secondary students from across Edmonton, spanning software, IT, business, and design, will team up in groups of 3 to 5 to build a project from scratch around the theme: Refinement.
Teams will spend the weekend collaborating, creating, and refining their ideas before presenting their final projects to a live audience.
SMIT Club has partnered with the Dev Edmonton Society to bring in mentorship and sponsorships from industry professionals, giving participants direct access to real-world guidance and connections.
Our goal is simple: give newcomers and first-year students an easy, low-pressure way into the tech and hackathon community.
Expect a fun, supportive weekend that leaves you with a portfolio project, new connections across disciplines, and the confidence to take on future hackathons.
