What is a
hackathon?
Hackathon is a coding marathon by Programmers, Developers, Designers and Data Scientists over a period of time that will prototype a seemingly impossible idea to a possible and viable business.
Veering away from traditional hackathons where ideas created ends up shelved due to lack of follow through, Impact Hackathon is designed with a reverse hackathon model where major partners can provide problem statements and become mentors to the Developer teams.

Introducing the concept of governance, which refers to the process of decision-making and process by which decisions are implemented, leads to assessing the causes of bad local or national governance.
These include the absence of voice, political instability, corruption, lagging economy and a lack of transparency. With the pandemic, it is crucial that private sector innovators collaborate with government in crafting solutions that would improve the system, create ease of doing business, digitize documents for transparency, and be able to impact all sectors of society positively.
