AT&T Developer Program

<H2>Have an app idea or need an app built for your business?</H2>
The Entertainment and IoT themed AT&T Hackathon, an event produced by the AT&T Developer Program, is designed for attendees interested in coding apps or hacking hardware solutions. So join us as we hack hardware, build apps/mobile apps, get fed, compete for prizes across different categories and most importantly: meet new people and scout for teammates to work on new or current projects. We will have experts from the local community onsite to assist with your development.
<H2 CLASS="MsoNormal">You Bring...</H2>
Your laptop, skills &amp; ideas. Come with a collaborative, team-focused mindset and/or team-up in advance on Twitter/Facebook/Google+ via the #atthack hashtag. Whether you are a backend person, designer, entrepreneur, student, or just interested in tech, you are invited to attend this event. Every group needs a good balance of talent and your development skills are needed!
<H2 CLASS="MsoNormal">We Supply...</H2>
Quick presentations and code samples that help to bootstrap your hacking, food to keep you going, and caffeine to keep you awake. We will have technical mentors to assist you in building faster, smarter, and with new tools. We will also have loaner hardware on-site for you to use in your solutions.
