Telecom Application Development Hackathon

2017

Join us in 2017…

Come join the global community focused on telecom application development. Discover the latest ways to add telecommunications to your application, service or business to solve global and / or local problems that matter to you.

TADHack is the only global meeting place for people (hackers, hustlers and hipsters: developers, business-types, and designers) who want to learn, share, code and create using the tools and technologies available in telecommunications.

What is TADHack?

The Telecom Application Development initiative was started in 2013 as a grassroots effort to build an ecosystem focused on telecom application development. Our mission is to bring together businesses, developers, non-coders… really anyone who is interested in using telecom capabilities in their applications, services, or businesses to solve local and global problems.

TADHack is focused on developers, technology, and creativity. It is currently the largest telecoms-focused hackathon worldwide, attracting 3000 registrations in 2016. Our sister event TADSummit focuses on the business aspects of making / saving money from telecom application development.
