We’re hosting Hackcon III at our San Francisco office on July 18th and 19th.
Hackcon is the place to be for student hackathon organizers. The event is run by our friends at Major League Hacking and will bring together 150 student leaders for two days of talks and workshops. Participants will share experience and best practices in everything from starting a campus group to producing large scale campus events.
If you lead a student hacker community at your university, we’d love to see you at Hackcon. You can find more information about the event and pre-register at hackcon.io. You can also check out the videos from Hackcon I and Hackcon II on YouTube.
