Edge Sprints
Delivered by Oxford Edge in partnership with EnSpire Oxford, Edge Sprints are rapid, cross-disciplinary hackathons turning ideas into impactful solutions.
Programme overview
Edge Sprints is an Inspire to Launch series of themed hackathons and innovation sprints open to participants across the University, delivered by Oxford Edge in partnership with EnSpire Oxford. They are designed to challenge and inspire undergraduates, postgraduates, and early-career researchers from across the University, spanning all disciplines, from science and technology to humanities and the social sciences, fostering creativity and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
Participants from across Departments and Colleges will work together in teams to solve real-world problems, develop prototypes, and pitch innovative solutions.

- Participants from any department or college who are curious about practical problem solving and collaboration
No prior hackathon experience is required - just curiosity, teamwork and a willingness to experiment.
