EasyA Takes Its Hackathon Inside the House of Commons

The UK-based Web3 education company EasyA is taking its hackathon inside the House of Commons, giving founders the chance to pitch their projects directly to policymakers. The event will be held on September 4, 2026, at the Palace of Westminster, and will feature a competition with judged presentations, as well as live panels and technical workshops.

EasyA has run this format for four years, with over 30 events worldwide. Alumni startups have a combined valuation above $3.5 billion, according to public reporting, while EasyA's own Kickstart page cites Cognition AI at a $26 billion valuation. The recent event calendar shows the scale of EasyA's hackathons, with nearly 1,000 developers competing in May 2026 for a $200,000 prize pool.

The timing of this event coincides with Britain's new rulebook on cryptoassets, which was published by the FCA on June 30, 2026. The UK is under pressure to retain its position as a hub for digital asset businesses, and an afternoon inside Parliament gives policymakers direct exposure to founders.
