About this event
Every day the world gives us more social and economical challenges to defeat. Some are brand new to us and some have been building up over a stretch of time. Whether it be in the past, present, or future, startups focused on social impact are disrupting the way that global challenges are being addressed.
The possibilities around making an impact with code are endless. How can you leverage new technologies to solve fundamental, global challenges and make a difference in the lives of people all over the world?
The solution will be up to you during USF’s Tech4Good Hackathon. Over the span of two days, this hackathon will bring together undergraduates, Masters candidates, and Alumni of USF with the tech community to create good in our ever-changing world. With tons of fun prizes including the HACKcelerator, it’s time to show how you can make an impact in one or more of the following global barriers: Refugees, Environment, Health, Education, Water, Homelessness.
