NEW ERA
What started in 2011 as a social business case competition where students had to find solutions for others is now changing format to a hackathon, where students have to choose the problem and find the solution for it by building their own product.
Creative Shock 2026 aims to empower student teams from around the world to turn bold impact-driven ideas into practical business solutions. Through real problem-solving, expert mentoring, international collaboration, and a final hackathon experience in Vilnius, Creative Shock helps young innovators develop ventures that address global challenges and contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
We aim to connect ambitious student innovators from across the world and help them transform impact-driven ideas into real business solutions that address global challenges.
