Hackathons to Accelerate Innovation

A hackathon is an event typically lasting between 24 and 48 hours in which people come together to creatively solve problems. Although in many cases hackathons focus on developing and testing software prototypes, they do not always involve technology.

 

Hackathons are unlike any other workshop. A hackathon is an exciting, energizing, intense competition-charged event that engages participants with customer-centric approaches to generate out-of- the-box ideas, while driving innovation and entrepreneurial thinking.
