What is a Hackathon?
Hackathons have been used by companies like Google and Facebook as well as other Silicon valley companies as a mechanism of bringing software engineers together to produce a new product within 24-48 hours. Several groups participate and compete for a prize. The organizers provide people with food, mentorships and the judges of the Hackathon (who may be investors, etc.) choose the best solutions. The Hackathon is an approach to create new projects and ideas collaboratively.
What is a Social Impact Hackathon?
Social Impact Hackathons are Hackathons with measurable impacts. Participants have 30 days to deliver their solutions to their users once the Hackathon is over to be qualified to win the big prize. It is a very important tool for development. It can be used in the strict sense to produce softwares to solve practical problems, and it can also be used to create collaborative solutions to problems. Social Impact Hackathons can be used to develop solutions to water scarcity, gun violence, how to control population growth, design of mechanisms to allow people to improve their lives and skills (adjust to changing job market situation) and other social problems

Faith-Ventures Meetup (Chinese session)
29 Apr - 04:00 PM
Palo Alto, United States
Are you a Christian in tech, quant, or design, and long to integrate your talents with your faith? Are you a data scientist or an AI Ph.D. wanting to create startups that disrupt the faith realm? Are you a coder or designer looking to apply your skills to faith beyond the limited opportunities of AV or website tasks at church?
Consider joining Faith-Ventures, a community of Christian with STEM or design backgrounds, exploring faith-related innovations and applications, through startup brainstorming, design sprints and hackathons. Previous introductory sessions described our vision and strategies for Faith-Ventures, and dived into brainstorming sessions. This event continues our brainstorming, but offers quick intro to newcomers as well.
Note that this particular session of Faith-Ventures Meetup will be conducted in Chinese, (but feel free to contact the organizer for more information and get notified for the upcoming summer sessions that will be conducted in English ).
