The Computer Science Society at the University of Hertfordshire has partnered with Encode Club to provide our members with priority access to one of London’s largest AI hackathons.

Sponsors include Canva, ElevenLabs, and Deloitte, along with additional partners supporting the event.

Through our collaboration with Encode Club, 10 members of the University of Hertfordshire Computer Science Society will receive free fast-tracked tickets, giving priority entry to the event.
