A meaningful goal needs a meaningful journey
Put your coding skills, enquiring mind and compassion to use, developing solutions for those in need in your community
This year, the Network Hackathon is pairing non-profits with each competing team. The goal: to develop effective solutions designed to meet the specific needs of members of our community. Get to know our non-profit partners and choose the one for which your team would like to develop a solution.

Will I be able to bring some of our ideas to completion?
​
Yes – but it depends on you. We managed to secure a significant budget to bring some of the ideas to completion assuming the demos will present substantial value to community
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I work on idea which is not related to the challenges presented by the non-profits?
​
Of course, any idea that is related to giving back to community is welcome.
Will there be competition?
​
This hackathon is more about co-operation that competition. All demos will be presented in local events in partnership with the non-profits, without voting or ranking.
Yet, we have secured a budget dedicated to developing the ideas which will bring maximum value to community – after consulting with the representatives of the non-profits.
Will there be prizes?
​
In this hackathon the prize is the contribution to community. We have decided to invest the budget we have towards developing the most viable solutions.
Will I have to participate at all the events?
​
No. You choose when and where to invest your energy and time.
Meeting with the non-profit partners will give you a chance to increase your knowledge regarding the organizations and the challenges their public faces.
The NEST and the learning events are highly recommended, but of course they are voluntary.
