Coffee and Coding Hackathon

General information
Do you like to invent and create new things in a team? Then you are welcome to join these 24 hours on the 14-15 of October. Every College and high school student is welcome to join us and create and pitch their idea. Did you always like to turn certain challenges into reality and to work together in a team? Then this weekend is amazing opportunity for you. You’ll join a lot of other nerds/geeks/super hero’s/designers etc. to turn a certain “challenge” into an amazing prototype that you can pitch at the end of the hackathon. The theme of the hackathon will be “The new economy” which is based on a new economy model where corporate social responsibility is one of the top priorities.
There will be sponsors and mentors from other companies available to make these 24 hours an amazing success for you. At the end of the hackathon you’ll have to pitch your idea with your team and a jury of professionals will judge your prototype. You can win several prizes and meet a lot of new people! In short, just an amazing experience that you can be proud of!
