Our second 48-hour hackathon. The theme: build an AI-powered tool that fosters genuine human connection or strengthens communities.

An internal review for our first incubator cohort, followed by a classic pizza night. A chance to share progress, tackle roadblocks, and build camaraderie.

The official start for our first batch of founders. The journey begins.

How do you get your first 1,000 users with a zero-dollar marketing budget? Alex Chen, founder of the beginner's cooking app Zest, did just that by ignoring experienced chefs and focusing on people who were scared to cook. Learn the scrappy, real-world tactics he used to turn a small WeChat group into a cult following.

Forget a formal review. This is a hands-on, mid-sprint workshop. Each team will demo their current product and present their single biggest roadblock. The rest of the community will then workshop solutions in real-time.

Building on the momentum of our first hackathon, we officially launched applications for our inaugural incubator cohort, open to all early-stage builders.

PENG Genesis:Our first-ever 48-hour hackathon. A pure-energy weekend of building, validating, and shipping. The ultimate proving ground for ideas and co-founder relationships.

A hands-on workshop led by the PENG founding team, focused on the critical skill of turning a vague idea into a clear, actionable product spec that an engineer can build.

Our very first offline event! We moved from avatars to allies, turning digital connections into real-world handshakes. The energy was electric.

This wasn't an event; it was the founding call. The first time the initial believers of PENG gathered online to share the vision of building a community for builders, by builders.
