HOW?

It all begins with an idea.

Maybe you know what you want to create, maybe you don’t. Don’t worry! The setup facilitates the process.

1. Team Pairing (Roommates)

  • We will first announce the teams of two, who will also be roommates.

2. Selecting a Tech Focus Area

  • Each team of two must choose a tech focus area from the predefined list below.

  • Once a focus area is selected, it becomes unavailable to other teams.

  • Selection will follow a first-come, first-served basis, determined by a small game during the briefing.

3. Forming Teams of Four

  • After selecting a tech focus area, each team of two will be paired with another team of two to form a full team of four.

4. Defining the Project Goal

  • Each team of four will decide on what to create. you can use the product concepts listed below for inspiration

  • This will establish their project goal, which they can then explore and develop further as a team.

Teams

Each project team consists of 4 people (or two teams of two) where two tech areas are represented - and don’t forget to decide on a team name.

24h Hackathon

It’s a 24-hour hackathon where you - a team of 4 devs will try to co-create something. And remember - it’s not about presenting the most awesome stuff - its about presenting the insights and learnings you’ve had regarding your chosen tech focus back to the group.

Presentations

Each team of 4 will have 2 minutes to show off their creation using the pre-made presentation template.
