Save the date for HackREGINA and HackVAN
Hi! Consider this post your “save the date” entry for the HackREGINA and HackVAN events.
What are these events about? In short, these will be one day events where developers work alone or in teams to build applications that use the HackDays sponsor APIs to build interesting apps. The best apps win great prizes. Want more details? Read the kick off post from last year.
I’m Boris Mann, and I’ll be your host for the HackVAN event, and Chad McCallum will be hosting HackREGINA.
Last year, Chad participated as part of a winning team in HackVAN and I was involved as a judge. This year, we wanted to get more heavily involved. We also both work for iQmetrix, which will be participating as an API sponsor for the very first public release of our API.
Chad in the meantime has moved back to Regina, where he’s going to lead the charge in pulling together Regina’s first hackathon
For HackVAN, we’re looking to make it a lot bigger than the year before. That’s the first ask: if you’ve got a space that can fit 80 – 100 developers and their laptops, contact us!
Want to get involved in either HackREGINA or HackVAN as a sponsor, API provider, or help out with organizing? Leave a comment to get in touch.
For now, follow the blog to stay up to date, and save the date!
