General information
It shouldn’t be a surprise when we say the world is changing fast. Digitization is becoming the core of all new and existing businesses. The reason for it is deeply rooted in the way we operate as human beings. We’re used to changing technologies, but when technology is changing so fast and deeply as it does today, it does not only change the game, it changes the rules of the game. Many businesses see business models they held on to for years, being challenged. On the other hand, technology provides so many new opportunities as well. If only you could grasp both the technology as well as the business model. If only, you could design the way the future would look like… If only, you could challenge yourself to become a part of that very future… If only… Then take part in this hackathon.
The four challenges are:
- What will our mobility system look like in the future?
- Find a solution that will help how we (re)organize our infrastructure and network systems for all our different kind of needs?
- Personal Mobility of the future
- Find a solution for parking (demands, locations, etc) which will be feasible in the full-grown MaaS concept.
