Can You Hack It? A Hackathon Survival Guide | Washington, D.C.

About this event

We all know hackathons are intense yet rewarding, but what is it really like to join a team & create something innovative over the course of just a weekend--and how do you survive?

Join PBS POV and Film Independent along with participants of past POV and FIND Hackathons to learn how participating in a 48 hour hackathon helped them grow personally and professionally. Panelists will cover not only how hackathons work and why they’re inherently valuable, but they'll share personal stories of how they survived their first hackathons and pass along tips and tricks to those looking to take the plunge.
