Join Sustainable Synapse: Hack for Social Impact, a hackathon designed for you to use your tech talents to create real change. Mentor Me Collective and the Google Developer Group @ City Tech has curated this one-day event to bring together over 100 students all for one purpose -- to develop innovative solutions for a more sustainable future.
