The Better World Hackathon is a weekend-long event aimed at creating innovative solutions to improve our climate, our lives, and our transportation systems. This is a unique opportunity for tech enthusiasts, makers, and problem solvers to come together and put their skills to the test using cutting-edge technologies.
This hackathon is designed for participants of all skill levels, and no prior experience is required. The only requirement is to produce a prototype (functional or design) for a concept that will make a better world.
The event will begin on Friday with team forming exercises to ensure that everyone is working with individuals who complement their strengths and share their passion. If you form your own team in advance you can work remotely and join us Saturday morning. It is strongly recommended recruit a MakeHaven member on your team with who is qualified on the tool relevant to your idea (do you need welding, sewing or some other skill?). Throughout the weekend, participants will collaborate, learn, and create innovative solutions that have the potential to change the world.
The Better World Hackathon will culminate on Sunday afternoon with a pitch competition, where participants will have the chance to showcase their projects and compete for glory.
