List of hackathons in Kingston Upon Hull, United Kingdom in 2019

Red Bull Basement Hatches provide a glimpse into the world of Red Bull Basement and the world of possibilities that technology offers to create social impact and solutions. The Red Bull Basement Hatch is an inspirational space where social innovators, creatives and enthusiasts of the future come together to exchange ideas on how to change the world for good through technology.  Whilst technology has a transformative impact on the lives of many, for the 13.9 million disabled people in the UK, technology truly can be magical.  Whilst mainstream technology is constantly stepping up its game for disabled people, specialist products (also known as assistive technology) have also grown their user base.  Some estimates predict that the global assistive technology market will be worth $26bn by 2024.    This Hatch event will explore and analyse technology of the past, present and future that has changed countless lives for the better though an evening of conversations and panels. If you’re a maker, coder, designer, hacker, architect, engineer or any kind of creative using your skills to solve social and environmental issues then come along and enjoy inspiring conversations and networking opportunities with leading experts and change makers.

It is an opportunity to work in multi-disciplinary teams to come up with novel solutions and prototypes – the prototypes might be tech based, service models or business plans – participants will present to a panel of industry and institutional leaders who will select the winning idea to receive a £1000 prize!   Ideas presented could be anything from an app that links people to others in their community, or a surgical innovation to support front line staff. As long as it is multidisciplinary and tangible and can be presented back in a ten minute slot then its up to teams to bring us their most innovative ideas. People can either join as teams, or as individuals who will then be placed into teams. Mentors will be available throughout the event to support and advise participants. Student teams will have 24/7 access to the Leslie Silver library over the weekend and refreshments, including pizza in true hackathon style!  This will be a high profile event, providing excellent experience and a great coup on your CV, not to mention the opportunity to innovate within and improve health services in the Leeds city region!    Agenda  Friday afternoon begins with scene setting, rules of engagement and introductions from key figures in health and tech across Leeds. Then we eat lots of pizza!  For the rest of Friday and all day Saturday, hackathon teams have free access to the Leslie Silver library to work on their ideas.

Kingdom Code is a community of Christians who work in the world of technology- whether you are a designer, developer, data analyst, game engineer, product manager, digital marketer, entrepreneur or something else entirely in tech this is a group for you. It's a month until Kingdom Code BUILD, our annual hackathon, and we're beginning to think about what we're going to be making… We're inviting the mission agencies that we will be partnering with for BUILD to join us to share more about what they do and their hackathon challenges with us. We're going to condense Google Venture's Design Sprint down to an hour and a bit to work through some techniques to come up with ideas, to refine those ideas, and then get them ready to be pitched at the hackathon. If you're still considering if you want to join the hackathon, this is a great evening to come along to, get a flavour of the projects that will be worked on and get to know some people in the Kingdom Code community. Or if you just want to see how five days can be squeezed into such a short period of time… that's worth coming to see as well! We'll be digging into these two challenge areas: How can we equip Christians to use the Bible more in evangelism? How might we resource your local church to serve and include the poor? We've got a full write up of the challenges over on the Kingdom Code BUILD page. This is event is part of the Kingdom Code Think series. As a community of Christians exploring the world of technology we want to be thinking, discussing and exploring how our faith shapes and changes what we do. Find out more at kingdomcode.org.uk.

A bring-your-own-gear hackathon for good projects.

Have you ever had an idea of how to improve a process in healthcare? or you just want to build a project with real-world implications? Come to HackMed!  HackMed is a free medical hackathon aimed at developing creative solutions to solve problems within medicine and healthcare. A hackathon is commonly described as a programming marathon. It is a 24 hour event during a weekend where small teams (usually 2-4 people) come together to share ideas, learn new things, and build cool things with others. HackMed is a student-run event for individuals from various backgrounds interested in the crossroads of life sciences and technology. No previous knowledge of programming or science needed. Throughout the weekend, hackers at HackMed will have a unique opportunity to learn from each other, build awesome projects together, and share them with other hackers. This will allow a multi-disciplinary mesh of people working on developing solutions to pressing problems within healthcare and medicine with the help and support of our experienced mentors. For more information go to our website at hackmed.uk

Come along to this free two-day event and help us ‘hack’ solutions to some of the UK’s most urgent social problems. Join digital professionals from across the public, private, education and charity sectors - including experts from our sponsor companies, MongoDB, dxw and Northcoders. The theme is ‘Connecting digital health services’. You’ll get chance to network and share knowledge with digital peers from across the north of England. And, what’s more, we hope to leave the event with ideas for new and creative ways to bring health services closer together and ensure people with health issues can access the right support at the right time.
