TREE Industries recently had the opportunity to attend and compete in its first hackathon: GlobalHack7. We loved the diversity of the crowd and the levels of competition. The room was packed full of all races, genders, and ages all ready to put their tech hats on, have fun, talk tech, mentor, and compete. It was the meeting of technologies and innovative minds all collected for three straight days of hacking.

The theme was based around helping all immigrants find resources and feel welcomed, safe, and their information secure when applying for resources.
