"XA has brought me what, the improvement of CS accomplishment goes without saying, what I appreciate even more is the opportunity to meet the most outstanding peers of my age. I met living MIT, CIT students, sought help from TAs who could handle any debugging, and also gained a bunch of board game friends. Perhaps it's laughable to say that my dream is to change the world, but XA gives me the confidence to turn my dream into reality.
The road ahead is long, with poetry and ideals in the places we go. The tears and sweat left behind yesterday make me stronger and more courageous now. This is what XA has taught me: we can always be a little braver."

During the last two days and nights of the summit, all students will immerse themselves in an exciting hackathon - Vertex Project X-Capstone. During this time, students will team up freely, combine their knowledge and unlimited creativity, and complete prototypes within a limited time. The mentor and teaching assistant team of X ACADEMY will also provide guidance and help throughout the day.
Many former students have accomplished amazing works in the first Vertex Project. These exciting ideas, after further crystallization, have either joined the competition of scientific and technological entrepreneurship, or become prototypes for commercial patent applications.
