🎖️The Final 40! Aura Agent Hackathon Builders

Well...The submission deadline has officially passed and what an incredible finish.

We ended the Aura Agent Hackathon with 40 amazing submissions built by developers from around the world using Neo4j, Aura, knowledge graphs, and AI.

From healthcare and finance to cybersecurity, agriculture, sports analytics, geospatial intelligence, customer operations, and knowledge discovery, the creativity, technical depth, and real-world impact of these projects has been outstanding.

:soccer_ball: :trophy: Looking for Your Next Challenge?

While Aura Agent Hackathon submissions are now closed, another community challenge is already underway.

Check out the​:backhand_index_pointing_right: 🏆 Welcome to the GraphAcademy Cup Community Challenge

A quick note: :stop_sign:** Aura Agent Hackathon projects cannot be resubmitted for the GraphAcademy Cup**, so be sure to review the rules and eligibility requirements.

That said, the GraphAcademy Cup is a great opportunity to continue your learning journey, take additional GraphAcademy courses, build something new, and showcase what you've learned.

:trophy: Complete challenges, earn points, climb the leaderboard, and compete for weekly prizes, including LEGO giveaways.

We'd love to see many of our Aura Agent builders continue the momentum and join the GraphAcademy Cup.

:clap: Thank you for helping make this one of the most creative and technically impressive community initiatives we've ever run.

Good luck to all of our builders. We can't wait to share the results. :rocket:
