Goodbye CharityHack, Welcome Battle Hack 22 May 2013

When we organised the first CharityHack in London in 2009 we always wanted to bring it to the world stage and this year we will. We have rebranded CharityHack to fit a global goal of hacking for good: Battle Hack.

BattleHack will be a 10 city hackathon series to discover the ultimate hackers on earth. At every stage we set one simple theme: create an app that helps solve a local problem. This could be charities, but also fighting bureacracy, or solving local transport problems.

The winners from every city Battle Hack will be invited to the World Finals in Silicon Valley to prove they’re the Ultimate Hackers on Earth.Winners of the World Finals will receive glory, our axe trophy, and the $100,000 USD grand prize.

Signup for Battle Hack London is open now.
