Welcome to GM’s “Makers Hustle Harder” Tour, hosted by Artisan’s Asylum! As a participant in the “Makers Hustle Harder” Hackathon, you will receive exclusive access to GM’s Next Generation Infotainment SDK to build and test your own connected car experience.

The kick-off for the event will be Tuesday, September 26th, 2017 from 6 to 9 PM; this session will cover the essentials, give you a chance to form teams (unless you already have one), and get you rolling with the SDK. You and your team will then have all week to put together your project and pitch.

Saturday, September 30th, we'll have a full day hackathon onsite where your team can test and refine your application and polish your pitch. GM will be providing vehicles onsite for testing.

Presentations will begin at 4pm and prizes will be announced directly after. This is the official registration to participate on a team and compete for prizes. All team members must register here to be eligible for prizes.
