You hit the nail on the head most times with hackathons as you mentioned the team split up on the project dies. This really sucks because we hardly get to see if they have real potential.

We noticed that in our previous #ShockTheWeb hackathons also. Sustainability was one of the keywords when we started planning this event.

⁃ You’ll have a chance to pitch investors and even do office hours ⁃ If you’re not interested in creating a startup and want to make an open source public good, we’ve got folks to help you with crowdfunding like Geyser.fun. Actually they’re a shock the web participant, Geyser Grants was built at our first hackathon. ⁃ There’s also mentors for design, marketing, and lightning dev who can help you make your project world class.
