VOICES FROM THE COMMUNITY

VOICES FROM
THE COMMUNITY

The availability of mentors at XRCC is so much better compared to other hackathons. And the workshops – even for someone who isn’t totally new to XR – they still give so much value.

Participant

XRCC has the full suite you want in a hackathon. Fantastic organization, fantastic catering – all the things you don’t usually think about, but that are incredibly important.

Sponsor – Zappar

For me, XRCC feels like coming home, a space where I immediately feel I belong.

Participant

If you’re an entry-level or intermediate developer, it’s going to launch you. My first hackathon completely changed everything. You learn so much. You network like crazy. You walk away with so many new connections. Even for someone like me who’s been in the game a while, it’s still always fun and beneficial.

Participant

XRCC 2025 again was an incredible event. immersive insiders team delivered big time. They managed to take it up a notch from the previous year, which was already an unforgettable event.

Mentor

The immersive insiders community is like a family. Everyone’s learning, being collaborative even while competing. Everyone is open and generous with their time and ideas.

Participant

A lot of other hackathons and conventions feel very businessy and stiff. This one feels warm and close. You see the same people across different XR events and keep those friendships going. It’s a tight-knit community.

Sponsor – Meta

XRCC is really well organized. I’ve been to several hackathons – and this one stands out. The people are great, the host is always around, you can talk to them anytime. There’s good communication and the tracks are solid.

Participant

XRCC is a big deal for us. Sometimes we only get support when we create something cool — but even when we don’t, support like this matters.
