HIV Innovation Sprint Design Challenge: Atlanta, GA

The Design Challenge builds off of the great insights, problems, and potential solutions that came directly out of Discovery Day. It is a fast-paced, hands-on, team-based “hackathon for good” experience where you help shape the future of HIV prevention in Atlanta. Over a day and a half, we’ll roll up our sleeves together to explore the local landscape, form diverse teams, and co-design solutions that could go on to receive funding, mentorship, and real-world support.

Whether you’re living with HIV, supporting someone who is, working in tech, running a nonprofit, or just showing up for your city, this event is for you. No experience is necessary — just bring your passion and perspective.

Where should HIV prevention efforts be focused? The Digital Health Institute for Transformation (DHIT), in collaboration with Gilead, is facilitating answers that question by engaging communities in Atlanta in 2025.

The DHIT HIV Innovation Sprint in Collaboration with Gilead will bring people who could benefit from HIV prevention together with those serving the community to match unmet needs with available resources.

Don’t miss the chance to shape the next wave of efforts to end the HIV epidemic.
