IICA Hackathon Ecuador
The IICA Hackathon was an initiative developed by the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) with the support of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock, Cenfotec University, Syngenta, and Club AgTech. The hackathon was aimed at promoting the design of technological solutions to connect consumers with agricultural producers in Ecuador during the Covid-19 pandemic. The initiative was open to young Ecuadorians and participants from other countries.
