A few times every year, the entire company (not just our engineering teams) takes a week to work together and explore new, exciting, fun, possibly-impossible-but-let's-find-out ideas. At the end of the week we gather together in rooms around the world for a demo watch party. This year we’re continuing that tradition with our first all-virtual public hackathon, and you’re invited. We’ll use a combination of video streaming and chat to gather together over a two-day period. If you attended last year, you’ll already be familiar with the Hack Demo Party that closes out the event: this year’s demo party will take place live on Zoom (pajamas are fine, but bring your own snacks). Join us for two full days of hacking, data science and problem-solving. Work in teams or on your own to leverage Planet’s platform to observe and discover. Registered hackathon attendees will be automatically added to a Slack channel one week before the hackathon. Brainstorming, discussion and team formation is encouraged to begin early. 

Seats are limited and registration will close on October 4th, so don’t wait!
