HACKATHONS...
.
- A DIY Guide + Lessons Learned

It’s OK to laugh!
I’ve tried
to make fun slides...

I’ve done more than 200
hackathons around the world
as organiser, mentor and facilitator…
This is what I’ve learned…

“A hackathon is a high energi event
of any duration where people come
together to solve problems…”

Future Hacks
Explore - disrupt - connect…
“Weekend-long technology and trend exploration format”

An often much needed 
break from the known…

Interdisciplinary skills…
Internal/external…

One example of “the ﬂow”…
Inspiration/
ideation
-> Judging…
->

.
Accept that you never really know where it’s going...

What really matters…
?!?!
High energy…
Just the right amount of information…
.
Limited time
A good problem definition…
Cool people
A cool location
GREAT FOOD!

What would be a good reason to do/
go to a hackathon…
.
Your industry is being disrupted - and you want to be part of it…
You want to solve/understand a problem…
You want to connect with new talents…
You want to give your employees a chance to unleash creativity…
You want to explore the potential of a new technology…
You want to build an innovation network around your company…
You want to change your company culture
A hackathon is NOT
Free labour…
A way to get a predicted result
Creating things with immediate ROI
