We hope to have the sponsors finalized soon. And some of the location pages need an update, but we’re good enough to make registration open 🙂
Plans for TADHack Global 2022
TADHack is the largest global hackathon focused on programmable communications since 2014. This year we are partnering with Network X (Broadband World Forum, 5G World, and Telco Cloud) as the pre-event hackathon. This is similar to what we do before Enterprise Connect with TADHack-mini Orlando in March. On 18th October we’ll have an opportunity for some of the TADHack winners to present at Network X to leaders from large multinational corporations to exciting start-ups from around the world.
STROLID is a new sponsor for 2022. They are leading the creation of vCon, an open standard for sharing conversation data. This new will enable some powerful hacks!
At TADHack Global 2021 Symbl.ai achieved an amazing result, 21 hacks, and Telnyx was even more impressive with 30 hacks; all created over one weekend by developers from around the world.
The locations we anticipate running are: Chicago, Tampa, Colombia, South Africa, Berlin, UK, Sri Lanka, Amsterdam, France, and remote (anywhere in the world). We are adding new locations, e.g. TADHack France (run by Le Voice Lab), and Amsterdam as we are the pre-event hackathon to Network X.
We had great success with TADHack Teens in Sri Lanka in 2021 thanks to hSenid Mobile and Ideamart, and plan to expand this initiative to South Africa and the US. We’re training the next generation of programmable communications engineers and entrepreneurs, as well as excellent summer interns!
We have two additional initiatives for 2022:
- Accessibility / Inclusivity prize with judges Chris Lewis of Lewis Insight and Manisha Amin, CEO of The Centre for Inclusive Design. Check out their resources to help your hacks.
- TADHack Founders Academy to help hacks build product/market fit, seed financing, and preparing for series A using the experience of everyone involved in TADHack.
In 2022 TADHack Global will be bigger and more impactful than ever! TADHack is for everyone, wherever you are in the world. Join us on 15-16th October to learn lots, have fun, perhaps win some of the cash prizes, and make a difference.
