Do you have ideas for improving the city? Is there a particular issue you’d like to learn about or fix? The Memphis Civic Data Hackathon is an event for everyone ready to get creative and brainstorm solutions to Memphis’s toughest challenges…using data!

In this multi-day event, teams will work together to build innovative solutions around three themes:

• Transportation and Mobility
• Health and Safety
• Neighborhoods & Census 2020

You do not have to be a techie to participate, although each team will include at least one member who is comfortable using data. Just bring your computer and love for the city, and be ready to build!

Prizes will be awarded as well!
