11 YEARS OF HACK THE 6IX Since 2015, Hack the 6ix has provided an unforgettable hacking experience to all of its attendees. This year, we're welcoming a record number of hackers to our 11th iteration! The weekend of July 18-20 will be filled with learning, connecting, and networking with over 400 other passionate hackers. Whether you’ve just learned what a computer is or you’re a seasoned hackathon veteran, Hack the 6ix is a place for everyone. VISION As a hackathon organized by students from universities across Canada, we hope to bring together the nation’s talent by providing an interactive environment where attendees can be free to innovate and create under the guidance of our industry mentors. We aim to continue to successfully expand our organization to provide more learning opportunities for students as well as more corporate exposure for companies. COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY Hack the 6ix is committed to being an advocate for diversity by creating an inclusive and equitable environment for innovation. Since 2020, we've taken great strides towards empowering more participation of women in technology through keynote speakers, panels with company representatives, workshops, and networking sessions. We want to continue with the same energy and hope to inspire more young women and underrepresented groups to explore careers in the technology sector and help them achieve their full potential.
