Meet a co-founder by shipping something with them in 48 hours
Co-founder-matching hackathons are the highest-signal screen for "could I build a startup with this person." 48 hours of constrained joint work reveals what 6 months of coffee meetings can't: how someone disagrees, what they cut under pressure, whether they're fun to work with at 2am. DevTeam.Games structures the matching, the brief, and the showcase.

Why founder-matching hackathons work
- Trial under fire — 48h of code + collaboration ≈ first 3 months of co-founder relationship compressed.
- Idea-agnostic format — pairs form around vibes + skill mix; the idea comes later.
- Investor-friendly funnel — accelerators and VCs love sponsoring; they get an instant deal-flow pipeline.
