When it comes to STEM skills it is well known by now that they are the future for career success. In order to achieve that, hackathons are a great start. We were super excited to have been part of the Gift The Code Hackathon as mentors to participants in this meaningful event.
According to Capital One, the main sponsor of this event, “Innovation is driving change in sectors spanning finance, health, and business, with technologists pursuing the most transformative solutions to disrupt established industries. Around the world, entrepreneurs are applying their lenses not just to industry challenges but to issues of social interest. At home in Toronto, you would not be hard-pressed to find organizations that would benefit from the efficiencies of technology.”
