We wanted to give a big shoutout to our hackers, thank you for keeping the spirit of Hack the 6ix alive for 11 years (yes we ran 2 hackathons in one year!) and more to come! Your ambitious, eagerness and passion is what makes Hack the 6ix such a great place to learn, innovate and grow! 💙

HUGE shoutout to our sponsors, thank you for supporting Hack the 6ix and our mission of making coding accessible to all students and empowering the next generation of builders, we couldn’t have done it without you all! 💙
