The AccessHack was hosted in 2025 from February 16th to February 17th. It was our eighth event.
The theme was: AccessHack - develop a solution that facilitates and assists in the accessibility of natural resources.
Thank you to EmP, local and remote sponsors, mentors and judges, the high school organizers, and our advisors!
AccessHack received a fantastic amount of registrants of all ages ranging from middle schoolers to high schoolers. There were 84 participants, making up 23 teams. We were excited to see so many participants of all experience levels work together to solve a problem and complete incredible projects.
Our theme this year was Resource Accessibility, with the goal to develop a solution that facilitates and assists in the accessibility of natural resources. We are incredibly grateful to AI4Life for leading a workshop, who volunteered their time to host workshops on creating AI videos. We also thank our mentors and judges for volunteering their time to participate in our hackathon. Our mentors worked with participants, coaching and helping them with their products, while our judges listened to all the presentations and provided great feedback for each team.
We want to thank EmP board and volunteers for all the great support. We look forward to seeing you again next year!
