WWCode Silicon Valley brings you yet another edition of our annual Hackathon.
Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to showcase your creativity using the Unity software presented by the Microsoft team.
Women Who Code events are open to anyone who supports our mission!
We welcome your expertise at this event, whether you are a developer, designer, product manager, project manager, or marketing professional. You will be working in teams of 5 to come up with the next big thing in the Mixed Reality space!
We will provide VR headsets for you to try-out your projects.
Win exciting prizes like Windows Mixed Reality Immersive Headset and many more!
This hackathon is geared towards all skill levels. If this is your first hackathon, you will fit right in! If you are a seasoned professional ready to lead a dedicated team, this event is also for you! This event is geared towards women but we also welcome everyone who supports our mission of inspiring women to excel in technology careers.
Our aim is to provide a welcoming and supportive space to learn about Mixed Reality development, work on a new portfolio project, or spend the weekend learning a new technology.
