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!

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!

Kingdom Code Leeds: Design Sprint
26 Sep - 07:00 PM
Leeds, United Kingdom
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.

FISH Meets Medicine Hackathon
18 Sep - 10:30 AM
Liverpool, United Kingdom
Event details
The Faculties Innovative Students Hub (FISH) is a space for University of Liverpool students to come together, form interdisciplinary teams and create solutions to real-world problems.
This 'FISH Meets Medicine Hackathon' will allow physicists, medics, engineers, computer scientists and chemists to work together to solve problems, specifically in the field of medicine.
The two day event includes inspiring talks from clinicians who will deliver problems that require solving, and who can work with student teams on their suggested projects. It is a great opportunity for students to develop their creative, technical and presentation skills, not forgetting that lunch, snacks and drinks will be provided!
Who should attend?
We are looking for both students and clinicians to get involved.
Clinicians are able to submit problems which should be solvable by a team of STEM undergraduate students. We know things can get busy, so the amount of involvement is up to you. You could just attend the event to outline your problem or, ideally, you would become an active member of the team and provide feedback on the solutions as they are being developed.
Students attending will be able to apply their knowledge to discuss, brainstorm and solve real world problems in teams. The teams who identify the solution will maintain intellectual property rights to that solution.
