Teams of hackers, coders and tech savvy geniuses will join forces to create a unique and amazing application that can be utilised in a business environment. The Solution needed is an AirBnb-type app for the township market. The minimum viable product will be a free Android app that lets tenants find properties and provides for rating of landlords and tenants. They will then be given the opportunity of presenting their solution/application to the panel of judges who will select and announce the winners at the Business Tech Show. The winning team will have the opportunity to showcase their efforts during the second day at the Business Tech Show.
