Alder Hey Hackathon 2017

    Using Revolutionary Technology to Impact Healthcare Today
     

    Do you have a problem that needs solving? Want to make the difference now?

    Does your problem directly affect patient care or something behind the scenes?

    You don’t need to have the answer, you just need to be passionate about what you do.

    Come to our Alder Hey Hackathon to discover potential technologies with creatives, innovators, academics from a variety of backgrounds, clinical or non clinical.

    Want to see your idea being developed like our previous winner?  

    Not for the faint hearted, you and your team will be brought from problem to pitch-ready all in a single day. 

    Held at the Institute in the Park at Alder Hey, we will provide food and drinks throughout the day to keep you energised.

    Sign up for free now to get the date in your diary.
