Social Innovation Hackathon 2015
06 Nov - 05:30 PM
Berkeley, United States
We are pleased to announce that IMSA’s 3rd annual Social Innovation Hackathon is underway! Our partner this year, the California Civic Data Coalition (CCDC), will provide real-world challenges with public data.
It’s time to take that jumbled, dirty, ugly data and turn it into something beautiful through technology!
The organizing committee is working closely with the CCDC to curate a set of well-defined challenge statements to make public data easier to access and analyze, and the impact that a 24-hour event can have. Participants will have access to subject-matter experts, real datasets, in addition to the basics: Wi-fi, meals, snacks, caffeine, and a dedicated nap room.

Participants are also strongly encouraged to consider a design thinking perspective and interview both potential end users and industry experts prior to attending the Hackathon (whether those users be providers, diabetes patients, or otherwise).
No coding is required at the Hackathon and prototyping tools will be provided. This is simply an ideation phase for participants to form teams, meet stakeholders, and develop a concept in a collaborative environment.

H2O Hackathon
09 Oct - 07:00 AM
Stockton, United States
H20 Hackathon – A Water Challenge was conceived during the summer of 2014 by San Joaquin County entrepreneurs, business leaders, government officials, and environmental leaders who saw a need for the development of new water technology in order to contend with the impacts of severe drought.
San Joaquin County is ground zero for many of the water challenges facing urban and agricultural communities throughout the state. Farmers face the challenges of extended droughts and extreme wet periods that will intensify with the impacts of climate change. A growing urban population, urban water districts, state parks, and wildlife areas face the same challenges.
Water is the most essential resource for the continued health of California’s agriculture, recreation, and business economies. Yet, it is a finite resource that must be protected to guarantee the future environmental health of the state, in addition to the public health of California residents.
