Please join Disruptor’s Handbook, in collaboration with The Future of Sex as we host Asia’s first Sextech Hackathon, in Singapore on the 18-20 May 2018!

Join us for a weekend of intensive creativity, out-of-the-box thinking and teamwork to solve the many challenges that currently exist in the sexual wellness world.

There is Fintech, Edtech, Greentech… and of course – Sextech. According to the Guardian, sextech is estimated to be a 30 billion USD industry that is growing at 30% each year (faster than the drone industry!). This is your chance to get involved in a quickly advancing industry and collaborate with others who want to change the cultural and technical conversation around sex.
