Join virtually from anywhere, really.
Our hackathon veterans have come together to build apps and pitch solutions from all over the world from across the US, Japan and Germany. Most recently even while in active war zones of Ukraine.
Collab and compete from the comfort of your home or wherever you need to fall in and make a difference in the world with us. You don't even have to put on pants if you don't want to (but we strongly suggest that you do).

Learn & grow with live workshops.
You’ve built your resume in the military, now you’re ready to build your civilian career. But where do you even begin? How will you know what’s right for you? That’s where Fall In comes in. You’ll be working with veteran professionals in our hackathons from the tech industry to build more than apps: You will build invaluable career skills meant specifically for veteran professionals.

Meet new pros from all over.
The VR Metaverse is a space where you can truly let your creativity run wild and collaborate with people from all over the globe.
We find this method helps participants connect in ways they never thought possible. You might work on a project that brings new colleagues and friends, casually talk with someone from another country, or even conduct user research directly with a Medal of Honor Keynote Speaker.

An agenda filled with knowledge
Hackathons for veterans by veterans. You’re used to the high tempo– now try it at the speed of the internet. NO CODING experience? NO PROBLEM. JUST PUT OUT!

Workshops
We will have live design and engineering workshops. You'll get an inside look into how pros work in real time, and you can learn from their successes and failures.
Speakers
We are bringing together speakers from around the world. They'll provide attendees with insights and inspiration that will help them in their own work.
Networking
With our four virtual breakout sessions, you can network with other pros from the comfort of your own home. You don't even have to put on pants if you don't want to (but we strongly suggest that you do).
Beginner friendly
This virtual hackathon is a great place to meet new friends, especially if you're the type of person who likes to talk about design, engineering, or pretty much any other kind of Tech. (And let's face it, if you're reading this, you probably are.) You'll have a great time.

Learn from the
best speakers.
We're proud to have a lineup of speakers who are not only at the top of their industry, but who are also highly talented and creative. You won't be disappointed.

We've got the answers for your questions
Seriously, if you have any questions about the hackathon, we have the answers.
We will help pair you up every week leading up to the event. More details in our Slack.
Workshops allow you to see how pros work in real time, and you can learn from their successes and failures. The hackathon also provides an opportunity to meet others and discuss the latest trends in Tech. If you're looking to improve your skills and network with others, our hackathon is the perfect place to start.
We hold our hackathons over framevr.io/fall-in for a fully immersive experience in the metaverse. There's nothing to download and the platform works best on Google Chrome. There will be private audio zones and you will be able to share your screen as well.
Framevr is an immersive 3D space where you can work together with other developers in the same room to create rich experiences, or just hang out and chat.
What's the time commitment? Put out as much as you can to help your team.
When you join us for this event, you'll be able to meet veterans from all over the place. Each one of us brings a unique perspective to the table and you'll be able to collab with one another during our networking breakout sessions.
We know that finding opportunities in tech can be hard, so it's important that we take advantage of every chance we get to connect with other pros who are going through the same thing. We're looking forward to seeing you there!
