Seattle AI Week: Claude Impact Lab Hackathon
Kicking off Seattle AI Week, the Claude Impact Lab Hackathon is a one-day build sprint focused on AI tools for small businesses. It is sponsored by Anthropic, run with the Washington Technology Industry Association, and organized by Adam Burgh of We Build With AI.
