Hello everyone,

On behalf of the entire Hackade team and all the sponsors, we want to extend a huge and heartfelt thank you to every single person who participated in The ARC Challenge: Africa.

This was not your typical machine learning competition. The Abstraction and R,easoning Corpus (ARC) is one of the most formidable benchmarks in AI today, designed to test the very limits of machine intelligence. The skill, creativity, and sheer determination we saw on the leaderboard were truly inspiring and a testament to the incredible talent within this community.

Now that the hackathon has officially closed, we are currently reviewing the final results and have reached out privately to the top-10 ranking participants to begin the verification process for the Deep Learning Indaba flight sponsorships.

Please be patient as we complete these final but crucial steps. We will post the official public announcement of the winners here on Zindi as soon as this process is complete.

Thank you once again for your hard work and for making this competition a resounding success. You are the reason we do this.

As the zindi saying goes; You Win or Learn, eitherways everyone is a winner!

Best regards.
