This hackathon is a hackathon for any university student (under, grad, and post-grad) who want to release a unique open source project built around the concept of open innovation and licensed under the open innovation license.

This hackathon is built on the concept and spirit of innovation for the sake of open innovation and showcasing cool projects that push humanity forward.

Primarily due to Covid-19, this Hackathon will be fully virtual.
