Where can I sleep?

Due to venue restrictions, sometimes you’re going to have to grab some sleep on a sofa or couches. You can also bring a sleeping bag to the event :) Sleeping at hackathons isn’t always the most comfortable arrangement, but it’s absolutely worth it for the experience.

What if I don’t want to present my hack?

You may think your project isn’t impressive or it may not be finished so you don’t want to present it. You should present it anyway! Honestly, hackathons isn’t about being the best or being competitive. It’s all about having fun, making connections and learning how to become better at things you care about. Presenting your hack gives you a chance to be proud of what you’ve done, and you should be proud.

What do I bring?

This is a very hands-on and grassroots event. Bring your laptops, mobile phones, wearable computing devices, to whatever inspires you but above all, your energy and your brain! Don’t worry if you forget something, Covengers will take care of that.

What is the goal of the hackathon?

We want to create an environment that embraces new ideas and technology solutions. A place where technology designers and developers can come together to develop your ideas and get help from industry experts in building them at the same time have the opportunity to present and win cash prizes.

How do I form or join a team?

We do encourage participants to start forming teams before the event. But do not worry, you’ll meet people when you get here. If you are looking for a team to join, be sure to send us an email and we would be happy to match you up with some team/participant. You can also propose or join a team via our forum, Meetup Community, Facebook page, and LinkedIn group. Tip: Invite your friends to come to the Codiecon too! That way you’re guaranteed to have at least one familiar face.
