ABOUT EVENT
The main objective of A2J Hackathon is to promote a deeper understanding of legal technology by people who work ( or planning to work)in the legal industry, in order to simplify and expand access to justice. The spirit of A2J Hackathon is communication, collaboration, and training. We encourage all participants to come with the intention of creating, changing and improving access to justice with their ideas, expertise, and hard work throughout the Hackathon. Goals:Training, Solving specific problems, Collaboration -all of the above or one of the above. Each participant will determine for himself independently!
Hackathon is an intense brain storming course where people with different skills get together, exchange ideas, form teams around the best ideas and develop working prototypes over 48 hours. The largest “Access 2 Justice Hackathon ” (A2J Hackathon) will be held around the world, where local chapters of the largest global community of innovative lawyers - Legal Hackers -are opened and operate.
