Edgex Challenge Shanghai 2020 is an international hackathon event on EdgeX, co-hosted by LF Edge and STCSM (Science and Technology Committee of Shanghai  Municipality, http://stcsm.sh.gov.cn/). It's jointly organized by Intel, Innospace, VMware, Dell Technologies, HP, ThunderSoft, and supported by Tencent and IOTech. 

The event aims to build a learning and sharing platform about deploying IoT & EdgeX Foundry to heal industry problems along with digital transformation. We focuse on pain points of IoT industries, and EdgeX use cases in retail, hospitality, banking, education, manufacturing, energy, cities/campus, and other vertical segments. Through creation, development and optimization of EdgeX based solutions, the participants are required to effectively combine technologies with industry best practices to enable real case demos, and commercial solutions if possible.
