HackDay is an event where participants work on bringing their ideas to the prototype. You can come up with ready-made ideas, for the implementation of which you did not have time. You can build a team directly on Hackday. Finally, you can start participating in one of our open technology workshops and create a new project based on them. HackDay is not a meeting for talking, it is not a conference or a party (although it is also scheduled;). In HackDay you can not participate as an observer. This is the place and time to work on real projects in the most creative atmosphere. Come and do something interesting.

On the
first HackDay in Russia , which took place on September 5-6 of this year in St. Petersburg, eleven projects were developed. In addition, it was possible to participate in ten workshops on current topics. He was visited by more than 150 people.
This time an even larger event is planned - more than 250 people. The format has changed a bit, this time HackDay will be closed for everyone except developers. Viewers will only be allowed to present prototypes on Sunday evening. It is also planned to award prizes to the three best projects.
Currently, participants are being registered and applications for master classes are being received.
Organizers: Web-development studio of Mikhail Kechinov, Alexander Krass (St. Petersburg State University ITMO), Vitaly Vlasov (Neva Camp), Ivan Lyutaev (start-up I-Language.ru).
The success of the first HackDay showed that this format is in demand and can become popular. The organizers set out to make HackDay part of the foundation of a St. Petersburg start-up community. The community should help in resolving issues at all stages of start-up development: from developing an idea and a prototype to receiving investment investments in a project.
Mikhail Kechinov, organizer: “Last HackDay we came to do a project, which was postponed for several months. We made a project and in addition found an excellent programmer for the team. HackDay may seem useful from an unexpected side. And the result of the work is already in beta testing. ”
If you have an idea for which everything is not enough time, if you have a desire to do something useful, but there are no good ideas yet, then HackDay is for you. If you are a developer, designer, marketer, user interface designer or just feel that you can make a contribution to a project, then come - we are waiting for you!
