Thanks Greg. Great plug to promote your next hackathon. You absolutely know how to draw big dollar sponsors in for hackathons. Kudos to you for that.
For us, hackathons are not about money. We prefer to partner and co-host hackathons with companies to who have similar values and credibility among developers that they've earned by participating and forming deep links into the developer community. These include but are not limited to Twilio, SendGrid, TokBox, Hacker League. We've all earned developer credibility over the years by helping developers on the ground, not by buying our way in.
We serve developers earnestly and will continue to do so at events and with partners that are aligned with our values.
