The fastest way to learn about the UA Little Rock AI Hackthon & HealthTech Startup Week June 8 - 12:https://youtu.be/JvrF6hwmCVU   We have raised $60k from UA Little Rock departments and UAMS BioVentures to make our AI Hackathon and HealthTech Startup Week in Little Rock free to 150 students across the state and region. $20K of that will be used for prize money for winning teams.  NVIDIA and Google have stepped up to help. NVIDIA is providing 24-7 tech support and access to their Healthcare Frameworks/Platforms. We are providing AI classes and certifications. Local healthcare providers are creating challenges that would bring them value. We have dorms for students and a few faculty coming from over an hour away. Our healthcare and tech partners are showing up to mentor the students and recruit them to work.  I need your help. This is BIG! Please, help us recruit high school and college students ages 16 to 26. Sign up to be a mentor! Join us for the Demo & Pitch Day. Join my planning committee. (Nothing virtual -- all in person.) All the links below and attachments will fill in any gaps. Please, spread the word.  Thanks! Marla    Important Dates: Application Deadline: April 30, 2026. Acceptance Notification: May 8, 2026.
