Programming with a purpose

As technology adapts to address new challenges, what is its impact?

The Hack the Gap Summit is a virtual, interdisciplinary gathering for tech builders and consumers. The technical decisions we make today can shift the needle towards a more just future – or not. Join us to learn how to reimagine technology to recenter people, increase opportunities, and hack the equity gap.

Join us October 6th-8th, 2-4pm CDT.
