ATI Announces Winners of the 2022 Hack@SChack hackathon

Advanced Technology International (ATI) is proud to announce the winners of the 2022 Hack@SChack  hackathon that took place Saturday, November 5, at Denmark Technical College. The event provided an exciting, competitive opportunity for underrepresented minority students from South Carolina’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Trident Technical College to hone their cybersecurity and computer science skills.

2022 Hack@SChack hackathon winners

  • 1st place: The TTC Team, Trident Technical College
  • 2nd Place (Tie): EET Cyberpunk, Denmark Technical College and Morris College’s Hornets
  • 3rd Place (Tie): Team 2, Benedict College and Team Gigatron, Denmark Technical College

Hackathon Participating Colleges and Universities

  • Allen University
  • Benedict College
  • Clinton College
  • Claflin University
  • Denmark Technical College
  • Morris College
  • SC State University
  • Trident Technical College

The Hack@SChack hackathon was the culminating event of a program that began with a nine-month virtual mentorship and a one-week immersion internship experience between participating students and members of the SC-based cyber and information technology industry.

History of the Hack@SChack Hackathon

The program began with ATI’s receipt of the SC Commerce Office of Innovation 2022 Relentless Challenge grant. While students learned real-world skills and developed valuable relationships, the industry was able to connect with local talent to meet their long-term workforce demands and help instill a passion for the cyber field.

“It’s great to learn about cybersecurity in courses, but being able to put that knowledge into practice brings classroom lessons to life. Participating in Hack@SCHack was an amazing competition and I’ll carry what I learned as I pave my way to a successful career in the technology industry.”

– Keithan Thompson, Denmark student
