For the fifth consecutive year, WebGeek will host its annual hackathon, DevCup, on August 20-21, 2016 at the Meralco Multi-purpose Hall in Ortigas.
DevCup aims
to bring together amazing developers, designers, and technology
professionals to create innovative apps and showcase the Philippine
developer talent. Participants are provided with a theme in which they
must develop their app and they are given two days to complete their app
to be presented to the judges.
Last 2015, 70 teams battled it out for the DevCup championship title.
Out of the 70 registered teams, 60 apps were presented at the end of
the event for the judges to select. The winning team of Jose Marco
Padillo, Giovanni Angelo Balaguer and Micah Andrew Bule of Cynder,
presented their app First Response which provides crowdsourced
notifications for information dissemination during a disaster or
calamity . On second place are Jezer Crespo, Marc Levinson B. Suarez,
Reynaldo Del Rosario Jr of Xudoer with Xonar and CodeBuddy was third
place with Connectify, with members Patrick Ofilada and Rommel David.
Early bird registration opens on July 18 until the 20.
You can sign up as an individual, or up to a maximum of three as a
team. Last year, tickets were sold out in just 2 days. Better
to register early, as the event only have limited slots.
This year’s DevCup is
expected to be as exciting as the previous years’ hackathons with the
participation and support of Philippine developers as well as its
esteemed sponsors. With your support we can make it a collaborative and
fun experience for everyone.
