HOW DO YOU CHOOSE A CHALLENGE?You can choose any challenge that captures your imagination and uses your skills. You can work on any of the offered projects (or create-your-own if you need to).HOW DO YOU FIND A TEAM?When you arrive at the event, there will be a number of focus challenges, and teams will be created from participants interested in working on particular projects. Virtual participants will join an 'on boarding session' online during the weekend where they can find collaborators from local events or among other virtual participants.CAN YOU START NOW?You absolutely can start now even though we hope you will do most of the work over the weekend so that you can work collaboratively with others. The idea is not for you to just build the best app ever. It's to create a team who will do something better than any of us can do on our own.HOW WILL YOU SUBMIT A SOLUTION?Registered participants will be able to submit their projects online for judging at www.spaceappschallenge.org during the event weekend from 12-13 April 2014.TrepHub is a non-profit organization dedicated to growing the technology and entrepreneur community in Melbourne, Florida.
