What is a hackathon?
A hackathon is not just a competition but a full-day event focused on solving a specific problem using innovative solutions. It is highly dynamic with expert training sessions to help participants develop the competition tasks, so they learn and gain highly useful information in a competitive environment.
What is the theme of the Science For All Hackathon?
The hackathon is based on an academic publication written by the researchers of the University of Pannonia. The teams will be asked to process this scientific publication and present it to the general public in an understandable, “consumable” form through specific tasks. During the competition all teams work with the same scientific publication. The selected publication is shared with the participants at least one week before the competition.
