ABOUT THEME 🏙️

This year's theme is "Civic Hacking: Uniting South Florida Cities." Each project should address issues faced by our local cities/counties/municipalities such as cyber hacking/ransonware, transportation and smart cities initiatives.

We aim to build a potential solution that one (or more) of our local cities can implement to support our very own local communities.


ABOUT TEAMS 🏙️

Teams will consist of developers, designers, project managers and entrepreneurs, with successful teams having a mix of these areas of expertise. From newly graduated tech students to senior tech leadership - everyone is invited!

A team may consist of a minimum of two people to maximum 6 people.
