<P><SPAN STYLE="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">ProtoHack exists to show non-coders that they can create something amazing from nothing. We empower and enable the non-technical community with the tools, knowledge and connections that will help bring their idea to life and visually communicate it through prototyping.</SPAN></P>
