With the new year upon us, here at MLH we thought we’d take a moment to look back at our achievements and highlights from our first ever UK hackathon season! A massive thank you to all our sponsors, hackathon organisers, mentors, venue hosts, partner universities, student hackers and everyone else in between for making the past few months an absolute blast for us.
We’ve come a long way since our first announcement of MLH UK. Last season we supported 10 student hackathons at universities all across the UK. Currently the team is working towards our 2015 Spring Season which will now encompass the whole of Europe allowing us to help spread the hack goodness to even more students!
Here’s to all those that contributed towards these 10 most unforgettable moments of the 2014 UK Fall season:
1. Keeping fresh with the first introduction of MLH Hack Sacks @ LaunchHack
2. Getting rid of hacker’s block with The Lego Challenge @ GUHack
3. Laughing our heads off with the funniest Slideshow Karaokes @ BrumHack
4. Kick starting the mornings with Breakfasts for Hack Champions @ StudentHack
5. Spending the Night at the Museum @ HackNE
6. When the clock struck 12am, it became Midnight Cake O’Clock @ WarwickHack
7. Everyone was a winner with the Hourly Raffle @ HackaSoton
8. Keeping sugar levels high with the Chocolate Fountain @ OxHack
