We're closing out NYC climate week with a bang!
As extreme weather intensifies & disasters become more frequent, the institutions we've long relied on-federal agencies, insurance, infrastructure-are showing cracks.
The Climate Hackathon Series is joining forces with Fulton Ring to gather adaptation & resilience experts, civic technologists, & institutional stakeholders-from local governments to insurers & banks-to build tools that help communities adapt before it's too late.
Join us for a multidisciplinary 1 day hackathon in Manhattan during NYC Climate Week where you can build solutions that empower decision-makers- from institutions to local planners to homeowners-to understand climate risks & take action.

FAQs
Do I need to be technical?
No. Our Hackathons are intentionally multidisciplinary. The best solutions are created by teams that have both technical & non-technical members. Climate problems in particular are quite thorny & often demand solutions that can address everything from software/hardware to public policy to environmental justice.
What happens to our solutions after the event?
If you and/or your team want to continue to work on your solution after the event talk to one of the event organizers & we will support you. We have had many teams continue to work on their solutions even after the event, whether it's building a fully functional MVP or even starting a company.
