Meta-Hackathon · Bio-Health Theme Week

You define the topic, the format, the team, and the deliverable. We provide the space, the schedule, and four tracks to help you find your people. Sunday is Pitch Night; Friday is the Bazaar — a marketplace of demos, tastings, screenings, and conversations open to the entire MU Shanghai community.

Four Tracks

During Bio-Health Theme Week, you don’t just attend talks — you start your own hackathon. Pick a bio-health question. Form a team. Build something real in 1–3 days. On Friday, bring what you made to the Open Flow Bazaar.

Three Rules

1

Connect to bio-health

Longevity, medicine, wellness, biotech, TCM, nutrition, health data — broadly interpreted. A documentary about biohackers counts. A crypto trading bot does not.

2

Make something for Friday

Every hackathon must produce a deliverable for the Bazaar. A demo, a film, a meal, a poster, a performance — anything tangible.

3

Stay open

No closed teams. At least 3 spots open to anyone who wants to join.
