Please join us Tuesday, June 20th at 6pm at the Charleston Tech Center for our June 2023 CHS AWS Community Meetup!
Have you been looking for a simple way to get more plugged in to the Charleston Tech Community? Tired of going back and forth between your home office and the beach all summer? Or have you been looking for a good excuse to learn and play with the latest technologies? (It's all moving so fast, isn't it?)
The Charleston Summer Hacks are a community-run hackathon in Charleston, South Carolina, and co-hosted by the Charleston Digital Corridor at the Charleston Tech Center. A 5-hour in-person hackathon focused on fostering innovation and collaboration to contribute to the growth of Charleston, South Carolina as a thriving technology hub.
The event brings together individuals from diverse backgrounds and skill sets, creating an inspiring environment to collaborate and develop innovative solutions to a specific problem. Our mission is to educate, empower, and enable individuals to join or grow their careers in the local tech industry and connect with likeminded builders.
Charleston Summer Hacks will be held on 3 separate days in the summer of 2023:
Each of the two events are separate hackathons and you will work on separate projects, so if schedules don't allow you to make both, just join the one you can!
You can find the second event here.
Charleston Summer Hacks offers a unique perspective on the positive potential of generative AI.

Embrace the capabilities of AI to address complex challenges, be it in healthcare, education, environmental conservation, and beyond.

At our event, inclusivity and diversity are of utmost importance. We place a strong emphasis on fostering a positive, friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for all participants.

What a month for VR & AR! Announcing this right off the heals of Apple's WWDC 23 conference where they announced the new Vision Pro that's been in the works for 7 years! Meta beat them to the punch by a couple of days by announcing the Quest 3, which looks quite impressive on its own, so there is plenty to discuss.
