About
Vampire Business Hackathon: Lisbon edition realiza-se de 6 a 7 de novembro de 2026, Futuro Lisboa, em Lisboa.
Build a business that runs while you sleep.
Everyone has a side project they never get time for. At the Vampire Business Hackathon, you'll build a business that runs on its own. On Friday you pitch ideas and set up AI bots to run your business: finding customers, creating content, selling products. Then you switch it on and go home.
On Saturday morning each team demos what its bot did overnight while everyone slept.
Agenda
Friday 6 Nov:
- arrival at 18:00, kickoff at 18:30
- building until 21:30,
- snacks and drinks
Saturday 7 Nov:
- demos from 10:30 to 13:00.
š§ Your bot's mission: land a real customer before sunrise.
The best vampire businesses win a free spot in our November go-to-market bootcamp, Unicorn Goes to Market. You don't have to take it: the hackathon is just for fun, and the bootcamp spot is there if you want to keep building afterwards.
It's open to founders, builders and anyone with an idea and no time, and no coding is needed.
Mentor: Dasha Dzisko
Product and brand design lead with 12+ years of experience, based in Lisbon. She teaches prototyping and coding, and has won an Awwwards Honorable Mention for her work. Sheāll help your AI-run business idea into a product people trust, with a brand and a demo that feel real.
Mentor: Adrian Patzi
AI engineer and speaker on AI and consciousness. He runs several AI businesses, building agent teams that ship with people and make money in the real world. At the hackathon heāll work with your crew, cut the noise, choose what matters, and help you and your bot ship something real with the tools you already have.
What to bring
š» Your laptop
š¤ A paid subscription to an AI agent. Please buy it before the hackathon, because the free versions are too limited to build a business in one evening.
Pick one of these:
- Grok Bot
- ChatGPT Plus (it includes agent mode)
- Claude Pro
- Manus
- Lovable or Replit, if you mainly want to build an app
Buy it and log in before Friday 6 Nov, so you can start building at 18:30. Not sure which to choose? Message us and we'll help.
Your ticket includes water and a snack. It doesn't include a subscription to Grok Bot or any other AI agent, so please buy your own before the event. Most can be cancelled after a month.
