Two builders talking through their project at a table with laptops

Recap · August 9, 2025 · NYC

Vibe Code Island

We teamed up with Venture Miner for an afternoon of AI and Web3 vibe coding with a Love Island twist: builders coupled up with ideas, tools and teammates, and had four hours to make something real. Our founder Maria Ashby and Venture Miner’s Matheus Pagani were on hand as speakers and mentors.

The best part was watching ideas turn into working prototypes in a single afternoon. Judges Jyoti Shah, Aishwarya Shah, Divya Mahajan and Alessa Cross had a tough job picking the winners.
