Dear Sir/Madam,

 

I represent UCL Financial Industry Series, a student-run forum that organises tech events, high-impact conferences, debates and talks on financial topics.

In partnership with Bank of America Merrill Lynch, LCH.Clearnet, RBS and various City firms, we are organising a 24-hour round the clock Hackathon which will be held on November 30 – December 1 2013 at Level 39 Technology Accelerator at Canary Wharf. Participants will get to pit their skills against students from top universities in the UK to design and develop an application over 24 hours. The event targets full-time university students with a passion to code. For more information, visit http://hackinthecity.com or the media release for the Hackathon we ran in Easter: http://hackinthecity.com/MediaRelease.pdf

We would like to extend an invitation for all of the members from your societies. The event provides a great opportunity for your students to pit their skills against top UK universities and network with engineers and HR representatives in major global firms. It will be great if you could broadcast the following information about the Hackathon to your students and encourage them to attend.

Please see the following brief and invitation poster for more details. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any further questions.

Date: 30 November 2013 11am to 1 December 2013 4pm
