Billy,

I wanted to extend an invitation to you to join Northwest AHEC, NCHICA and Quintiles for a healthcare Hackathon! We will be teaming up and designing tech solutions aimed at helping caregivers of elderly with dementia in their home. We are inviting students and professionals with expertise in healthcare technology and caregiving to team up and problem solve using six future methods of coordination. The winning team will walk away with $3,000.

Please send this invitation to all students, hackers, caregivers and health technology specialists. We’re looking to fill the room with problem solvers from all angles to promote the best solutions! It will be a great weekend with food trucks, photo booths, interviews and fun. Please register below and plan to join us if you can!
