health{hacks} OC Healthcare Hackathon

health{hacks}, Orange County's first healthcare hackathon, is June 13th-14th (this weekend!).

health{hacks} hackfrom{home} is a global virtual healthcare innovation event aimed at creating practical and interdisciplinary solutions to beat the COVID-19 pandemic.

They aim to bring together physicians, engineers, business professionals and more to foster interdisciplinary innovation and bring products to market, rather than just create software solutions; to turn biomedical discovery into social impact.

With this mission in mind, this event is open to anyone from any field or profession!

They're excited to announce that they've partnered with 1517 Fund (Peter Thiel-backed VC Fund), Product Hunt, Think Board, BPS BioSciences, WolframAlpha, and more to provide $8,380 cash value in awards and prizes, including $1K seed funding grants for outstanding projects.

Whether you are involved in medicine, engineering, business, or tech, there’s a place for you to contribute.

They hope that you join them this weekend — they truly appreciate each sign up as they hope to bring together the most people they can to help combat COVID-19.
