Mythos Labs in collaboration with UN Women designed and delivered a Hackathon at the Regional Multi-Stakeholder Forum on Leveraging Technology and Artificial Intelligence to Advance Women, Peace and Security in Asia and the Pacific in May 2026. The session brought together several practitioners from civil society organizations and women human rights defenders across the region, and was built for participants with no coding background or advanced experience with AI tools. Teams pitched their ideas and received feedback, and Mythos Labs provided a donation of USD 1,000 to each team to further develop their ideas. Following the Hackathon, Mythos Labs conducted virtual mentorship sessions for four teams from across the Asia Pacific region.

From Shunya to Ananta

In May of 2026, Mythos Labs partnered with the Indian Ministry of External Affairs to create “From Shunya to Ananta: The Indian Civilisation’s Contribution to Mathematics,” an exhibition hosted at the United Nations in New York. Inaugurated by Indian External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar, the exhibition was developed in collaboration with Fields Medal-winning mathematician Professor Manjul Bhargava.

Featuring animated LED walls, interactive touchscreens and ‘do-it-yourself’ activities, the exhibition traced how mathematical breakthroughs traveled from India to the ancient world, ultimately shaping modern technologies from artificial intelligence to smartphones to GPS navigation.
