On Friday June 23, the hackathon will officially kick off with developer, designer and data scientist attendees from across NYC’s university campuses and beyond. Teams will assemble themselves and introduce their concept to the audience on Friday evening with the goal of working on their concepts ideas all day on Saturday June 24.

The teams will hack through the afternoon. All hacking will end at 5:30pm which will lead to the project demos, the judging and then ultimately, the prize ceremony and closing reception.
