HackZurich

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

HackZurich is an international programming and innovation competition ( Hackathon ) and takes place once a year in Zurich in mid-September .

history

HackZurich was founded in 2014 by Rasmus Rothe and Jonathan Isenring together with students from ETH and the University of Zurich and took place for the first time in Technopark Zurich from October 10 to 12, 2014. HackZurich has developed into the largest hackathon in Switzerland since the first year and now has more than 5500 applications from 55 countries within a few days. The 600 people will be selected to take part in the 40-hour programming marathon. During this weekend, between 140 and 160 innovative prototypes will be developed from Friday to Sunday. The HackZurich is supported by numerous national and international companies. The prototypes are then further developed either as start-ups or in cooperation with the companies.

In 2016 HackZurich was expanded to include the Digital Festival , a platform for cross-industry and cross-hierarchical discourse on digital topics.
