PropHack - Property technology hackathon

Welcome to the inaugural PropHack hackathon, an event for technology innovators to build, break and discuss all things proptech.

Pitch an idea, join a team or simply come to network, PropHack will be bringing together the proptech community for a jam-packed weekend of hacking and mentoring.

What's the big idea?

Property remains one of the few sectors relatively void of technoloy disruption - a large portion of existing solutions and platforms are archaic, uninspired or simply no longer relevant. But that is changing, and the PropTech movement is growing. With the introduction of exciting new technologies and a growing number of start-up success stories (e.g. AirBnB), high-profile tech innovators are quickly switching on to the vast opportunties untapped within property. It's time to fill this sector with ideas, talent and start-ups.
