About
"A hackathon is an event where participants, usually programmers, designers, and innovators, collaborate intensively on software or hardware projects within a limited time—typically 24 to 48 hours. The goal is to rapidly prototype innovative solutions, develop functional applications, or solve real-world challenges." -ChatGPT
BrisHack is the University of Bristol's annual 24-hour hackathon, organised by the Computer Science Society (CSS), the Bristol Electrical and Electronic Engineering Society (BEEES) and the Bristol Blockchain Society (BBS). It is a fantastic opportunity to dive into new technologies, gain hands-on experience, and connect with industry sponsors — all while having fun!
- The maximum team size is six people.
- Be responsible and look after your and your teammates' wellbeing. You should try to get at least a couple hours sleep, drink water, and have a break from your screen every once in a while.
- Prizes will be awarded to a team; it is up to the team to decide how to distribute these fairly.
- All work must be done within the 24-hours of the hackathon. However, you are welcome to think of project ideas before the Hackathon begins.

- Participants retain the rights to all IP produced during the hackathon, but give CSS, BEEES and BBS the University and event sponsors permission to showcase projects (with appropriate credit) on website, blogs, etc. if they wish to do so.
