Iacopo Maccario’s Post

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to help organize an amazing Hackathon at our RAISE offices. AI Tinkerers community did a great job at bringing together more than 100+ builders from across the ecosystem and amazing sponsors like Google, Mistral AI and NVIDIA. I was very lucky because I got to see firsthand what the true builder mentality looks like: ▪️Their mindset embodies the idea of "Start Now and Get Perfect Later". In other words, builders don’t wait for the ideal plan or perfect conditions. They dive straight in. They write code, test it, see what breaks, fix it, and try again, over and over, with incredible speed too. ▪️When they see a problem, they don’t stop. They fight to find a solution, challenge the bottleneck, and push forward until something works. ▪️It’s a relentless cycle of building, breaking, learning, and improving. Thanks to the organizers, the sponsors and most importantly, the builders who showed up packed with energy, ideas, and an insatiable hunger... for innovation and pizzas 🍕 😂
