Hack for Good (and Profit)
summary
Examples focus on running Cloud Foundry-backed hackathons that train developers and produce working demos: Intel runs eight one-day events that train over 100 developers and force deploys to Cloud Foundry; a six-week contest yields ~350 submissions and public voting; teams build things like a service broker or a BOSH release and use bosh-lite for local work. Organizers manage quotas on the fly, require a rubric, do hourly or 90-minute readouts, and award pragmatic prizes (Ultrabook refresh, gift cards, Hershey’s kisses).
