Scoop AI Hackathon Heads to London for Global Web3 and AI Innovation Challenge

• Participants will get the opportunity to experience a top-tier building adventure thanks to Encode Club’s excellent local developer support and significant hackathon expertise.
• Following a pre-event registration period that was available until December 5, 2025, the hybrid event will take place at Encode Hub on December 6–7, 2025.

For its third stop across the world, the Scoop AI Hackathon is making its way to London. This event invites developers to build the next generation of artificial intelligence agents and autonomous apps utilizing SpoonOS. Encode Club, a worldwide community of developers, professionals, and students who are at the forefront of developing technology, will be the co-hosting organization for the event. Developers in and near London are strongly encouraged to register at the official website of the Encode Club, while general participants are invited to join via the Luma page in order to increase their opportunities for learning and networking.

Participants will get the opportunity to experience a top-tier building adventure thanks to Encode Club’s excellent local developer support and significant hackathon expertise. A relationship with ElevenLabs, a platform that is known all over the globe for its artificial intelligence speech generating capabilities, will also be shown during the London edition. This cooperation will equip builders with powerful voice tools to improve their projects.

Following a pre-event registration period that was available until December 5, 2025, the hybrid event will take place at Encode Hub (41 Pitfield Street, London N1 6DA, United Kingdom) on December 6–7, 2025. The event will mix online and in-person participation.

A Battle Royale-style format, complete with three checkpoints and elimination rounds, is introduced at the London leg of Competition. The teams who are able to satisfy the benchmarks set for each stage will go on to the subsequent phase, which will culminate in the submission of finals on December 7 at noon.

Competition Structure and Prizes

In order to compete for a total of $10,000 in GAS prizes, participants will race over five different tracks:

• AI for Science –  Accelerate the discovery process via data analysis, modeling, or the production of hypotheses using artificial intelligence for science.
• AI for DeFi and Payments –  — Develop more profitable trading methods, enhance risk management, and build financial agents that are driven by AI.
• Vibe Coding for Web3 – It allows developers to create on-chain apps that are creative, artistic, or fun, going beyond the scope of standard coding.
• AI Prediction Market – Building AI-driven markets for predicting and autonomous trading is the goal of the AI Prediction Market service.
• AI Agent with Web3 — Developers may create agents that interact directly with Web3, making judgments and carrying out activities on the blockchain without human intervention.

When it comes to the distribution of prizes, the first place winner will get $2,500, two winners will receive $1,500 each, three winners will receive $1,000 each, three winners will receive $1,000 each, and three winners will receive $500 each for the Excellence Award.

ElevenLabs Participation and Perks

In its capacity as a technology partner, ElevenLabs will make its artificial intelligence voice platform available to all of the participants. Every participant will be granted access to the Creator tier for a period of three months, while the team that comes out on top will be granted access to the Pro tier for the same period of time. The best project that was produced with ElevenLabs will be awarded access to the Scale tier for a period of six months.

Neo is a major Layer-1 blockchain, and SpoonOS is the Web3 Agentic Operating System that is powered by Neo. Together, these two companies are hosting the Scoop AI Hackathon, which is a worldwide project. The hackathon will take place in eight different locations, including Moscow, Hanoi, Tokyo, Seoul, Silicon Valley, Hyderabad, Beijing, and London. It will begin in October 2025 and end in January 2026. A total prize fund of $100,000 is available across all Web3 and AI tracks in the worldwide series.

The objective of the initiative is to uncover elite talent and investigate the ways in which artificial intelligence and blockchain technology might be combined to provide a foundation that is more open, efficient, and inclusive for the future Sentient Economy.

SpoonOS is an agentic operating system that continually evolves and is driven by Neo. It was designed specifically to satisfy the expanding expectations of developers working on Web3 ecosystems when it was first developed. SpoonOS is a platform that sets the basis for the future generation of artificial intelligence agents. It is equipped with a complete toolbox as well as a rich ecosystem that is fully integrated.

Neo is a blockchain platform that was established in 2014 and is open-source and community-driven. Its primary objective is to encourage developers to participate in the Smart Economy. Neo was designed to facilitate the realization of the more optimal digital world of the future by providing developers with the ability to digitize and automate the management of assets via the use of smart contracts. Neo, the blockchain that is the most developer-friendly, meets developers where they are by integrating smoothly with the languages and tools that are used the most frequently throughout the globe. Additionally, Neo offers the most feature-complete blockchain platform for the building of full-stack decentralized apps. Neo is the appropriate foundation for developers to build the next generation of the Internet since it provides native support for strong infrastructure, such as decentralized storage, oracles, and domain name service.
