Bill > HB1329

This bill appropriates funds for grants to participants in application challenges in Hawaii, such as the Hawaii Annual Code Challenge, so that the proof of concepts created during these challenges can be developed into prototypes suitable for local and state government use. The High Technology Development Corporation will manage the grant program, which requires matching funds from non-governmental sources and that all applications be made open source. The bill also allows the Corporation to use some of the funds to support the application challenge events, manage the prototype implementation process, and execute an adoption plan. The bill is effective on July 1, 2038.
