About Foresting Hackathon 2018
Through this MoU, Foresting HQ and Viewo will be holding ‘ Foresting Hackathon 2018. ‘ This is a hackathon competition under the theme of blockchain SNS technology.
Foresting Hackathon 2018 will take place from the 29th to the 30th of July. As well as being the first Hackathon between Israel and Korea, this event will also mark a new opportunity for the two countries’ blockchain industries to learn from one another. Because the event takes place from Sunday to Monday, attendees won’t need to burn their entire weekend to join the fun.
Foresting and Viewo hope that the Foresting Hackathon 2018 will bring together the best blockchain engineers, developers, and content creators in Israel. Foresting will also bring some of Korea’s top investors who want to learn more about Israel’s Blockchain ecosystem.
During the event, attendees will solve a series of problem-solving tasks together. And of course, try some traditional Israeli and Korean food, too. 24 hours later, each team will present their demos on stage to a panel of high profile Israeli and Korean judges. It’ll then be decided who’ll be crowned the winner of Foresting Hackathon 2018!
