Our history
hillhacks began in 2013 as a conversation between Ritu and Tenzin, founders of the Dharamsala International Film Festival, and Akiba, a hacker/maker from Freaklabs in Japan. It soon expanded to include Ayush Ghai from Ghoomakad (Infinity Hackbase) in nearby Rakkar, and sva from Germany. Within a year the first hillhacks took place.
