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 coding marathons 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.
