DIVERSITY - first thing that came to mind seeing these pictures.
Had the pleasure of judging BUILD IRL last weekend, a one-day hackathon by @superteamIE + Claude Builder Club @tcddublin
Really impressed by the talent, products and ideas presented.
Congrats to the winners 🏆 and shoutout to all 24 teams and ~100 participant who gave up a sunny Saturday to show up and build.
Looking forward to seeing some of these ideas go further.

An interesting stat about @ycombinator :
A 2025 analysis by Palle Broe found that 25–50% of companies in its mature batches had been acquired.
An earlier @PitchBook study states 4.5% of YC-backed companies became billion-dollar companies.
It's pretty remarkable.
