iOi Hackathon 2018
28 Aug - 10:00 AM
San Francisco, United States
On August 28th and 29th, 2018, teams from around the country will be meeting in San Francisco at NAR’s first iOi Hackathon to determine how artificial intelligence and machine learning impact the future of real estate. Teams can start building their ideas on August 1, and will present them as part of the iOi Summit on August 29th. It is imperative that all participants in the hackathon adhere to our Code of Conduct, which can be found here.
Artificial intelligence and machine learning are already impacting real estate. From chatbots to natural language processing to predictive search, products are evolving. What is possible outside these realms? This hackathon aims to find new and novel approaches to how artificial intelligence and machine learning will impact real estate. Some example problems to explore:
How can we improve the ways in which agents serve their clients?
What are the opportunities for improving home search in the real estate industry?
How can agents maximize their marketing opportunities with less effort and without opening themselves up to legal issues?
How will data display be impacted by these technologies?
We aim to think deeply in this hackathon about these problems and how AI/ML can be applied to solve them. For more information about the hackathon, please view our full rules, guidelines, terms, and conditions.

Call for Code hackathon - Silicon Valley
25 Aug - 08:00 AM
Fremont, United States
Calling all Developers, Designers, and Domain Experts
On August 25th, 2018, the City of Fremont, 42 US, Silicon Valley Insider, and Tulip Industries are teaming up with IBM to host a one day hackathon to help developers, engineers, designers, and emergency responders work on projects around Natural Disaster Preparedness and Relief during wildfires.
This hackathon is a satellite event for the Call for Code Challenge (callforcode.org) providing a chance to dedicate time to brainstorm, plan, and start building your submission for the challenge which closes on September 28. Projects built at the hackathon will be judged at the end of the day for a local grand prize.
On average, every day natural disasters will directly impact 80,000 people, costing the global economy more than $270 million. What if technology could help improve these figures? That’s exactly what Call for Code is setting out to do. It asks developers to work out how to use AI, Blockchain, Cloud, Data, and IoT technologies most effectively to improve communities’ disaster preparedness and resiliency.
With 17 big blazes burning across California thus far in 2018, fire damage is likely to set an all-time record. In 2017 estimated lost from California wildfires totaled $10 to $12 billion, we have a unique perspective that can help drive innovation in this field. We are developers, makers and builders who have lived through disasters. We know what is at stake. Bring your best!
