During our workshop we work with Arya and their Founders Kristina Wilms and Purcy Marte on their mobile app that helps people suffering from depression. Depression is a widespread psychological disorder that affects more than 350 million people making it the leading cause of disability worldwide according to WHO.
Join us on April 16, 2016 and start building your first native mobile app using React Native. On this day you will be able to enhance your skills and expand your knowledge by working on a real project together with Jonathan Moore (Former CTO Team Europe, CTO Vertical Media, e.g.Gründerszene.de) and Norman Rzepka (Co-Founder scalable minds and Racemap) and other likeminded participants from diverse backgrounds. Immerse yourself into the latest technology for mobile app development and learn how breakthrough technologies can tackle exceptionally fast growing social problems globally.
