The Hackathon
Over the course of 48 hours, teams will develop highly innovative prototypes to four predefined challenges, at least one of them concerning sustainability. The focus is on innovation, exchanging knowledge and having lots of fun!
The competition must not be neglected either: Great prizes await the winning teams. Ultimately, the aim of the participants is to build powerful solutions to real problems.
The hackathon is hosted by ZHAW and the Entrepreneur Club Winterthur and powered by Noser Engineering AG.
