The opening day of sHeACK will begin with a keynote presentation, introducing the concept and various rounds of the competition to the participants. The prizes will also be revealed during the keynote talk, after which participants will be asked to brainstorm and find solutions to a set of problems. The hackathon will continue on the 2nd day with another introductory session, followed by presentations, feedback from judges, the announcement of winners and the prize ceremony. Adding to the fun, both days of the event will include lunch and snacks on-the house, along with group photo sessions.
