Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC)

<H2>FinTech, RetailTech, and Innovative Disruptors Wanted</H2>
If you are drawn to challenges, problem solving, and the idea of possibly creating the next great unicorn in financial technology (FinTech) or retail technology (RetailTech), then you just might be part of the winning team in the Advanced Technology Development Center’s FinTech-RetailTech Hackathon.
Participating teams will compete for cash, gadgets, and professional-services prizes.
A program of the Georgia Institute of Technology, ATDC is the state’s technology incubator. This year’s theme centers on two industries in the midst of disruption: finance and retail. The competition is designed to bring together entrepreneurs, developers, designers, and innovators who thrive on tackling challenges, solving problems, and working in teams to create the next big disruptive FinTech or RetailTech idea.
Of course, this is a serious competition, so there will be prizes, including cash, gadgets, food, and some cool swag, too. Ultimately, participants will decide which ideas to work on using our sponsors’ APIs. They can work on their own projects or work on challenges presented to them by our sponsors.
But this is more than your typical hackathon. The ATDC FinTech-RetailTech Hackathon is the competition for entrepreneurs, developers, designers, and innovators who seek to take their ideas to the next level. It will provide winning teams with the critical post-hack engagement, mentoring, and support to not only create, but build and launch viable startup companies.
