The Autonomous Municipality of Caguas and its mayor, William Miranda Torres, invites the community and technology specialists to participate in the “Caguas Energy Hackaton,” an event that seeks to create ideas and alternatives to manage the energy crisis facing Puerto Rico.
The Hackaton will take place this Saturday starting at 9 a.m. at the Criolla Center for Science and Technology of the Caribbean (C3Tec) in Caguas.
Much more than an event for programmers and technology experts, the Hackaton will be a creative space with forums and discussion panels open to the public, where energy experts, community leaders and government representatives will share how they have faced the energy crisis on the island.
Giancarlo González, Matt Highfill, Adam Newetzki, Mauricio Larrañaga, Ramón Luis Nieves, engineer Juan Alicea, José Oyola Ríos and Carlos Nieves Arroyo, among others, will be present and will serve as panelists. The panels will start at 1 p.m.
