Who Owns the IP?

At the Kerala Road Safety Hackathon participants will be creating impactful solution to address Kerala’s most pertinent Road Safety concerns. Participants are asked to use only open API’s and technology. In exchange for prize money participants will give KRSA access to full code repository.

What is the fresh code rule?

All code developed as part of Kerala Road Safety Hackathon must be fresh. Before the start of the Kerala Road Safety Hackathon, attendees may create wireframes, designs and user flows. They can also come with hardware. But to keep things fair, all code must be written onsite at the Kerala Road Safety Hackathon. Other than that, almost anything goes and you can use any coding languages or open-source libraries.
