THE Port Hackathon 2017:
Call for ideas now open!

Got an idea that will fit perfectly as one of our next challenges for THE Port Hackathon 2017? Then, submit your proposal with a short description to: idea@theport.ch You have time until March 31, 2017 to share your ideas.

What are you exactly looking for?
Any challenge that is linked to a humanitarian or social issue that needs attention. We are particularly interested in challenges that aim at reaching a significant development, which could ideally be designed, planned and completed as a working prototype in a single, intense 60-hour hack-sprint.

How can I submit my idea? Is there a preferred format?
Yes! We have a very short and easy template to help you submit your idea and a few guidelines to follow. Download the template here.

I'm not sure my idea fits 100% with the event...can I contact you?
Absolutely yes! If you are still not sure that what you have in mind suits the event, please, first have a look at our previous editions and check the type of challenges that were included. Otherwise, shoot us a message at the same email address, we will be happy to help you out!
