About the challenge

George Hacks is a student-led innovation organization at the George Washington University, dedicated to empowering the next generation of problem solvers in healthcare. Since our founding in 2018, we’ve provided a platform for students from diverse backgrounds to collaborate, think outside the box, and tackle real-world challenges presented by experts in the healthcare industry. Our flagship event, the George Hacks Innovation Hackathon, brings together creative minds from across the D.C. metropolitan area to develop impactful solutions at the intersection of medicine, technology, and entrepreneurship. Through hands-on experience, mentorship, and interdisciplinary teamwork, George Hacks gives students a platform to harness their skills for the greater good.
