Presented by Superteam Canada
A social the night before Cursor Codechella, billed by the organisers as food and drinks. The listing welcomes Superteam Members and Codechella participants. Registration is by approval rather than automatic, and space is limited. Superteam Canada members have their own ticket type that skips the approval step. Superteam Canada describes itself as leading Solana's innovation network in Canada. Membership is selective and capped at 150 accepted members, and the chapter runs grants of up to $10,000 plus Spark North, a pre-accelerator for the global Solana Startup Competition. Codechella runs the following day and carries a Solana prize track among its four.
Who's in the room: Superteam Canada members and Cursor Codechella participants.
Anu's Take
"Some food and drinks" is doing a lot of quiet work in that sentence. Superteam Canada is Solana's Canadian chapter, it hands out grants and runs a pre-accelerator, and there is a Solana prize track sitting on Codechella's agenda the next morning. It is not billed as a scouting night, but Friday before a hackathon usually is one.

I went to a hackathon meetup for the snacks this month and left having pitched an idea I had carried for ten years: sixty seconds, second place, and the reason I can finally build it.
