Overview
Overview:
Major League Hacking (MLH) is the official student hackathon league. Each year, we power over 200 weekend-long invention competitions that inspire innovation, cultivate communities and teach computer science skills to more than 65,000 students around the world. MLH is an engaged and passionate maker community, consisting of the next generation of technology leaders and entrepreneurs.
MLH has been a community first, mission driven organization from the beginning. We measure our success by the number of hackers we empower, and we want to keep it that way. That’s why we made it official and became a Certified B Corporation in 2016. B Corps are for-profit enterprises that are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their community, not just their shareholders.

Spud’s Thoughts:
Hackathons are something special. They are perfect if you simply want to build something and get running with an idea. Often times we create excuses for why it’s not possible to create – but a hackathon creates the energy, connections and environment to make sure you go from zero to something in just a weekend. This portal will show you all the different hackathons happening around the country.
