The participants can opt for either working on a team or independently, and they will get practical support from experts and mentors, who will guide them in their quest for real-life solutions.
The educational hackaton is addressed to students, professors, education professionals, researchers and innovators. In addition to the challenge, some other activities will be carried out in a pleasing and enjoyable atmosphere.
