Hackathon 2023

Ah, Galveston. Known for its sandy beaches, historic charm, and... hackathons? That's right. This October, the coastal city is set to host its third annual Hackathon, and it's shaping up to be the event of the year.

Hackathon 2023 isn't your typical tech gathering. Organized by Vision Galveston, this event is all about bringing together the community to brainstorm, innovate, and find solutions to some of the region's most pressing challenges. Think of it as a 48-hour brainstorming bash, where teams race against the clock to develop groundbreaking solutions to real-world problems.

Participants will be diving deep into a range of topics, from increasing food access in urban neighborhoods to tackling the ever-growing issue of plastic pollution in Galveston's waters. And the best part? There's cash on the line. While the exact prize amount remains a mystery, the promise of a cash reward is sure to fuel the competitive spirit.

Beyond the potential for monetary gain, this hackathon offers participants a unique opportunity to make a tangible impact. The challenges presented are real issues facing the Galveston-Houston community. By participating, you're not just flexing your intellectual muscles; you're contributing to the betterment of the region.
