Go Code Colorado is a program that aims to solve business problems in Colorado by hosting an app development competition. The business community identified five key problems including business site location, access to capital, and higher education resources. The competition will involve an initial kick-off, a statewide challenge weekend where teams work on apps in different cities, a mentor workshop, and finals event in Denver where the top three apps will receive cash prizes of $25,000, $15,000, and $10,000. The goal is to promote hands-on economic development and bring together different communities through data and technology.
