Camp Network Africa, in partnership with TechyJaunt, has officially kicked off the Camp Network Africa Buildathon (#Buildathon4Africa). Running from November 10 to December 6, 2025, the month-long hackathon is already breaking records with over 300 applications.
Camp Network Africa’s mission is to empower African developers, creators, and founders to build real-world solutions using Camp Network, the first Layer-1 blockchain designed from the ground up for intellectual property ownership and autonomous AI agents.
With a $10,000 grant pool, direct mentorship from Camp’s core team, and post-event incubation for winning projects, this is far more than a hackathon; it’s a launchpad for the next wave of African on-chain innovation.
Builders who are tackling critical sectors including DeFi for the unbanked, AI agents for smallholder farmers, provable IP registries for musicians and visual artists, transparent healthcare credentialing, and tokenized creative economies are welcome to apply.
Amazingly, creators and builders with little to no blockchain experience can apply, as TechyJaunt is providing free accelerated courses in blockchain development, frontend, backend, and data analysis.
“Most hackathons gatekeep with high technical barriers. We removed them,” said the TechyJaunt team. “Whether you’re a complete beginner or seasoned dev, if you can dream a solution for Africa, we’ll teach you how to ship it on Camp in weeks.”
Submissions close December 6, 2025. Projects must integrate Camp Network’s provenance-native tools (IP tokenization, agent frameworks, onchain attribution) and include a 2–5 minute demo video. Top teams will pitch at a grand finale event (hybrid format) and compete for grants plus fast-tracked incubation.
This Buildathon comes at a pivotal moment, as Camp Network’s testnet offers the continent’s builders the first real shot at owning, tracing, and monetizing their IP and AI models onchain. Interested persons can register here.
