Welcome to Hackaping 2025 - an AI hackathon with Linköping University, Google, IoT World, Etteplan and Cillers.
Free of charge!
Why Participate In A Hackathon?
Hackathons differ from regular development projects at work. What makes hackathons unique is the exploration; it is a creative process where participants, under time pressure, build an innovative prototype that showcases what is possible with a new technology.
Most developers are drawn to hackathons for the creative environment, the opportunity to meet others, learn new techniques that they don’t usually use in their daily work, and the chance to compete and showcase their skills. These different driving forces come together in a hackathon, creating amazing energy, lifelong friendships, and valuable learning experiences.
A Fun And Transformative Experience
⭐️ Immerse yourself in an inspiring and creative atmosphere together with peers from the Nordics' most prominent companies and universities. We've prepared challenging tracks designed to test and enhance your skills.
⭐️ Stay Up-to-Date with Game-Changing Technology: Engage hands-on with technology adopted by industry leaders like Apple, SpaceX, Uber, Cisco, LinkedIn, VISA, Walmart, Electronic Arts, and Akamai to build better systems faster.
⭐️ Break Old Habits In A New Environment: Gain inspiration, knowledge, and challenges that encourage you to break old habits and discover better ways of building systems.
The Tracks
We've prepared four tracks that all address highly critical business processes. The market potential is enormous for anyone who can build a simple and effective solution.
Explore AI-driven paradigm shifts
Game-changing solutions often emerge when AI is combined with other potent technologies. We will provide tech resources and workshops for many AI-driven paradigm shifts to help you build a winning solution.
Showcase Your Talent
We have assembled an exceptional jury of executives from Sweden’s largest and most prominent companies like Ericsson, Volvo Cars, Atlas Copco, H&M, Assa Abloy, Sandvik, IKEA, ICA, SEB, Nordea, Åhléns, Husqvarna etc. eager to see your demo.
Team Formation
Team Size: Teams at our hackathons often consist of 2 to 8 members. There is no upper limit, but it gets hard to coordinate with too many members.
Do you need a team? No worries! Just apply and if we will help you find a team!
Already got a team? Make sure every member registers individually and specifies the team they belong to. This helps us understand who belongs to each team and ensures we can communicate effectively with all participants.
