In March, Pace Women in Tech, POP TV, and the Cybersecurity Club hosted the second annual Sunflower Hack, so named for the event's ability to attract people who stand out from the crowd, who are unique and different. This all-day hackathon (and first-student run hackathon) at Pace encourages participants to join no matter their level of coding experience.

Prizes were awarded to teams who excelled in categories including Best Entrepreneurial Hack, Crowd Favorite, Most 麻豆传媒淥ut-of-the-Box麻豆传媒 Hack, and more.
