Members of the event are broken up into teams and attempt to utilize technology and other resources to create prototypes and a plan of action to begin solving this issue. This event provides youth with the opportunity to discover possible careers in technology via hands-on interactive activities. The goal is to show individuals on how to utilize their interests and ideas in technology that can be useful in their community and eventually their future careers.
