What it does:

The mini-hackathon platform will be targeted for only SMB and not for large enterprises. Small & Medium business can leverage the wonderful and brilliant tech communities of DevPost to solve their business problems. Let's say a small neighborhood florist would like to go online and and it can post the project in Devpost mini hackathon platform with fixed time (3 weeks) and fixed prize money. Once posted the challenge the SMB needs to provide the prize money through an escrow account. Devpost staffs would validate all details to ensure this is a solvable & feasible problem and they can mark the hackathon live. The tech communities can participate and then the owner gets to select the winner who would take away the prize money. The business who posted the hackathon can get their nice business portfolio website and can work with the winner team further if they would like to do.
