Our virtual event series, Global Hack Week is back in 2023! Last year, we had 9.5k attendees over 6 Global Hack Week events. This year, we’re turning up the heat and hosting a Global Hack Week every single month.
Below is a summary of the exciting changes we’re making to Global Hack Week this year, and how you can get involved!
What is Global Hack Week?
Global Hack Week is a virtual monthly event series hosted by Major League Hacking where you can learn new skills, build your portfolio, attend fun sessions, and connect with thousands of hackers from around the world. Global Hack Week events are 100% free to attend, and no experience is necessary to participate.
Who can participate in Global Hack Week?
Anyone is welcome to participate in Global Hack Week – there are no requirements to attend! At the event, you will have the opportunity to meet hackers from across the globe who share your passion for technology.
You’ll meet members from the Major League Hacking (MLH) team at the event! We have a brand new team of Global Hack Week Streamers who will be at each event to help you learn new technical skills.
And this marks the start of my programming for my first ever @MLHacks hackathon using @autocode to create a Discord Bot! Thank you @JackBiggin for the stream earlier, I'm sure a lot of us learnt a lot from it!
