The Loop Game

Each team will need to go AI-native with their idea or existing business. You will compete in completing a series of challenges to prove you have become AI-native in your business using tools like Vorker, Claude, Lovable, ElevenLabs, Cursor, and more.

Teams deploy from HQ [A0] and navigate an interactive 7x7 arena 25 meters underground in KTH Reactor Hall (R1). You will complete ongoing operational challenges using autonomous tools like Vorker, Claude, Lovable, ElevenLabs, and Cursor. Progress is tracked live on screen, evaluated in real time as teams lock in submissions, and at the end the winners will be announced. Submissions are verified via 15-second screen recordings demonstrating completed autonomous workflows. Special nodes featuring the Vorker mascot unlock an automatic +50% bonus multiplier on your score.

Build a company that runs on autopilot

This is not about coding another toy frontend. It is about architecting and deploying a complete autonomous operational loop that executes independently, whether you are technical or not.

With Vorker, 1 to 3 founders can launch and run global ventures by orchestrating autonomous AI agents that handle outbound prospecting, market research, sales qualification, fulfillment, and ongoing support. Every entrepreneur receives 20,000 Vorker credits (worth €400) upon arrival, combined with tool credits from Lovable for rapid app creation and ElevenLabs for dynamic voice and audio AI agents.
