HOPE is Now an Annual Event!
BUT WAIT! How is this possible? HOPE has traditionally only taken place on even-numbered years, with the sole exception being Beyond HOPE in 1997.
THINGS HAVE CHANGED. It's finally time to make HOPE an annual event!
HOPE_16 is a welcoming place for hackers of all types: makers, artists, educators, experimenters, tinkerers, and more! If you're interested in playing with technology, coming up with new ideas, learning from others, and sharing your knowledge, then this is the place for you!
HOPE_16 is an all-ages event with at least four speaker tracks, a whole bunch of workshops, awesome vendors, and fun activities throughout the entire weekend. This will all take place in a unique campus environment accessible by mass transit and offering free parking. On- and off-campus housing options are available, with surprisingly low prices.
