Husky Hackathon 2023

The UW Foster Technology Club is excited to announce the 2023 Husky Hackathon! This year’s hackathon will be focused on revolutionizing education and bridging gaps in the EdTech space.  

The Annual Husky Hackathon attracts students from the Foster School of Business, the Allen School of Computer Science, the School of Design, and the Buerk Center for Entrepreneurship. 

 The Hackathon is an exciting weekend-long event where you will work with a diverse team to find new opportunities, build a prototype, and pitch it to potential investors. This is an opportunity to experience the entire process of creating a product from start to finish, regardless of your background. It is simply a space for students of any major to meet, collaborate, learn from each other, and come up with creative solutions using technology. Husky Hackathon is designed to be beginner-friendly and will have plenty of mentors and speaker sessions to guide you! 

You will learn new skills and gain hands-on experience in entrepreneurship and innovation. With cash awards of up to $3,500 for the top three teams, this is your chance to turn your ideas into reality and win big!
