Turning Hackathon Challenge into Success

October 5th, 2014

We have just  carried out our very first internal hackathon which has  been a huge fun. The goal was to create something, anything that could serve for the future prosperity of Plexonic. It kicked off on October 3 at 10 a.m. in AUA Business Center and run through the next 24 hours.

Well, it’s not a secret that 24 hours is not a long time for making a minimum viable product. However, the vast amount of creative and useful work that was issued from each attendee was far more productive than if it was done at any other point in time.

Moreover, it was organized in a way that everyone could just enjoy their time there: large cozy hall, 8 teams, creative environment, fun, freedom, lots of food and snacks, drinks, awesome music, massage etc. all this for the best run of Plexathon event.

So, in action, it was already awesome  but the most cool part was yet to come.․․ final presentations!! It was a real harvest of highly creative output. And the fact is that several of our Hackathon ideas are in their way to turning into real live products. We know that Hackathons are what we make of them.  We challenged ourselves on fun development and made it a great success! So, there is one thing we are sure of: you’ll still learn of our next  hackathons!
