Global innovation

Whether you're a university or an incubator working with the world's next innovators — Miro gives you the tools to run group projects during hackathons.

Are you a nonprofit agency or organization running a virtual challenge? You can apply for a free Miro account for your teams — and solve important, meaningful problems in new, collaborative ways.

If you're a community organization running a contest, you can apply for a free Miro account — and tackle your neighborhood's most pressing problems in digital.

AI, robotics, VR, insert next big idea here — if run a competition and teams projects drive new technologies around the world, you can make them a reality in Miro.

“Tools like Miro have proven to bring a lot of value. With pre-existing templates, we saved a lot of time when we had to prepare competitor analysis, SWOT analysis, user story maps, and a user flow.”

FAQ

All public hackathons, contests, and/or challenges — that include more than 50 participants — can take advantage of the offer. The event must include participants from different teams and organizations (unfortunately, we don't support internal company hackathons). Workshops, courses, and non-competition challenges don't apply.
As organiser you will be the admin of a free Miro account, with ability to invite and manage as many participants as you requested for the contest.
We encourage you to get in touch with the event organizer directly (make sure to share a link of this page). Once we approve access, they will be able to invite you.
Free, unlimited boards! You can create as many boards as you like (think: infinite ideas). Board features will be the same features as the ones included in the Team plan (with the exception of video chat, Jira, and Confluence integrations).
We have just one small ask: Please mention Miro as a sponsor on your event's marketing materials (like your event's official web page and social media posts).
