This will be the 10-year anniversary of the hackathon we started with only 90 attendees. It has grown each year to 400+ and is the biggest hackathon in Santa Cruz. CruzHacks is back and excited to announce that the 2023 hackathon will take place in-person on January 13-15.

There will be workshops, speakers, prizes, and more! Everyone is encouraged to apply – you don’t have to be a computer science major or have any previous coding experience. This is a great opportunity to create a project for your resume and portfolio or just to have fun learning and networking with others! As part of the hackathon, students will develop solutions to real-world problems, pursue inclusion in tech, and kindle the spirit of innovation.

Interested in competing in Santa Cruz’s premier hackathon? Applications are available on our website. Deadline to apply is December 16, 2022.
