Attending the Blockchain Center of Excellence's annual hackathon simply means coming together and using technology to solve problems. Participants will form teams to work on use cases provided directly from our partners and sponsors to solve real world challenges using blockchain technology. On Saturday night, teams will showcase the conceptual or functional blockchain application to industry sponsors and the NWA community. Whether you are a complete beginner with an interest in learning blockchain technologies or a professional software developer, this is an exciting event to engage, build and network with a diverse range of students, individuals, startups, local businesses, as well as large global companies all passionate about seeing the development of applications and talent in the blockchain industry.
