Why participating?

Discover useful data

There are many interesting data sets readily available on data.public.lu, which can be useful for your next projects. Discuss the data sets directly with the main data producers in the domain.

Develop your creativity

Creativity is clearly an asset to all problem-solving. However, creativity is like a muscle and needs regular exercise. By brainstorming and collaborating with people from diverse backgrounds, you will stimulate and exercise your creativity and come back to the office with lots of new ideas.

Learn new tricks

Collaborate among a multidisciplinary team and discover new tools and techniques, which could be useful for your daily job. Practice your analysis and prototyping skills in a time-constrained environment.

Networking opportunities

You will have many opportunities to chat with other participants and data producers. Presenting your concepts to the other participants will give you a unique opportunity to get feedback from your peers.

It is free!

Participation in the event is free, with a free lunch, refreshments and coffee.

FAQ

What is a collaborative hackathon?

A collaborative hackathon focuses on multidisciplinary collaboration and not on the competition compared to other hackathons. There is no jury, no evaluation at the end, no price. There is nothing to win, and thus nothing to lose. We prefer to invest in the quality of the event, to put you in the best conditions to develop your creativity and network with people with similar interests in Luxembourg.

Who can participate?

This event is open to any participant with an interest in Open Data and housing data. Possible profiles: data scientist, software developer, UX designer, project manager, business analyst, researcher, data journalist, etc.

Can I come with my team?

Yes, you can. There is no obligation to mix your team with others. Around noon, if your project is very similar to another one, we will propose you merge teams, but there will be no obligation to do so.
