NEPTUNE, N.J. — WorkWave will host its third annual “WorkWave Hackathon” event on Sept. 12, 2015, at Monmouth University’s Howard Hall in West Long Branch, N.J.
The Hackathon, co-sponsored by the Monmouth University School of Science, will pit teams of talented software developers against each other in a competition to create a fully functional application that assists visually impaired, deaf and hard of hearing or disabled citizens in completing everyday tasks.
“WorkWave’s commitment to addressing the needs of its surrounding community has opened the doors for some incredible breakthroughs. Last year’s winning development team produced an app that helps connect volunteers to relevant local charity events,” said Chris Sullens, president and CEO of WorkWave. “This year, by examining the daily struggles faced by disabled citizens, the many talented developers participating in the Hackathon will work hard to create apps that produce technological solutions to help alleviate these struggles.”
