This event will take place on **February 17th–18th, in-person at Binghamton University's Innovative Technology Complex**. Regular registration will close at midnight on February 11th, so register soon! + + + +The hackathon is a 24-hour "innovation marathon" in which you and your team of 1–4 students build a project from the ground up in the language and technology of your choosing. We highly recommend that students of all backgrounds get involved, regardless of skill level! If you feel unconfident programming, we will be hosting workshops that go over programming with Python and presenting ideas with web development. + +Thanks to our sponsors, we will be providing free food and free swag to all of our attendees (this year's swag color is cardinal red!). There will also be many opportunities to network and attend talks from our affiliates. + +If you would like to learn more, please visit [the HackBU 2024 website](https://hackbu.org/2024/) :) + +
