Scoop AI Announces 'Seoul Bowl' — A Two-Day AI x Web3 Hackathon Landing in Korea This December

Seoul, Republic of Korea — Scoop AI is bringing its next global hackathon stop to Seoul with Seoul Bowl, a two-day build event taking place December 20–21. Co-hosted alongside Neo, the longtime Layer-1 blockchain, and SpoonOS, the chain-agnostic agentic operating system powered by Neo, the event aims to unite builders shaping the future of AI-driven Web3 applications.
 
Seoul Bowl will gather developers, researchers, and emerging builders for a weekend dedicated to prototyping intelligent systems—particularly around the rapidly advancing field of agentic AI, where autonomous agents interact, reason, and execute tasks on decentralized networks.

Three Tracks Focused on High-Impact AI Innovation

Participants will build across three tracks that reflect some of the most active innovation areas in AI:

• Agentic Infrastructure & Productivity AI

• AI4Science & Engineering

• Autonomous Finance, FinTech & Quant AI

Teams will compete for an $8,000 prize pool, including:

• $2,000: Grand Prize (Top overall project)

• $1,000: Winner for each track

• Additional recognition for standout submissions within each category

These tracks highlight Scoop AI’s broader mission: accelerating real-world applications of decentralized, autonomous AI capable of powering next-generation Web3 systems.

Powered by Ecosystem Leaders: SpoonOS, Neo & Scoop AI

The event’s co-hosts represent three pillars of the emerging AI-Web3 stack:

SpoonOS

A living, evolving agentic operating system built on Neo, SpoonOS gives developers a unified toolkit for building, deploying, and coordinating AI agents across Web3 environments. It’s designed to support high-bandwidth, intelligent applications that require decentralized execution.

Neo

One of the earliest community-driven blockchains (founded in 2014), Neo is built for the Smart Economy era—supporting digital assets, decentralized storage, oracles, domain services, and full-stack tooling for developers across many programming languages.

Scoop AI Hackathon Series

Scoop AI’s global hackathon program aims to accelerate applied AI innovation by providing teams with structure, mentorship, and access to an ecosystem of builders and researchers. Seoul Bowl marks the next step in scaling real, production-ready agentic systems across Web3.

Community & Partner Support

Seoul Bowl is supported by an ecosystem of contributors including Google Cloud, Kite AI, Aegis Venture, Gridge, Habsida, Digital Nomads Korea, and CodeSeoul, helping expand the reach of the hackathon to developers across Korea and APAC.
