All participants had exposure to tools such as IBM Watson, Chat Bot Engine, and IBM Blockchain through this initiative, enhancing their understanding of current technologies and inspiring them to think of new and innovative applications for them. Enthusiastic for opportunities to apply their knowledge to real-world challenges, iSchool students represented the largest contingency at the event, and a team of five graduate students from the iSchool’s Information Management and Applied Data Science degrees won the challenge. Following a hackathon-style format, the program culminated with final presentations to a panel of technologists from IBM and the Syracuse community. Hosted at Syracuse University’s Blackstone LaunchPad in Bird Library, 125 students from across campus formed teams and challenged themselves to develop solutions that significantly improve preparedness for natural disasters and relief in their aftermath.
