List of hackathons in Konstanz, Germany in 2016

Interested in battling malware? The Computer Incident Response Center Luxembourg (CIRCL) invites you to sign up and participate in the MISP Hackathon - Swiss Edition. You'll get to network and collaborate with like-minded security professionals. You'll work with MISP (Malware Information Sharing Platform) — a threat sharing platform to stress test that platform's ability to provide a systematic response to computer security threats and incidents. You'll work with MISP's API, taxonomy, website and more to help improve countermeasures used against targeted attacks and to set-up preventive actions.

The Climathon Climathon is a global 24-hour Hackathon, which will take place simultaneously in more than 50 cities around the world on 28 October 2016. The word "hack" is used to describe how multiple technologies can be used together in a new and innovative way, which is what we'll be doing during the Climathon Zurich. Here's an invitation to shape the future of your city! Are you a developer, techie, entrepreneur, student or any other creative spirit? Then come together for 24 hours and create new solutions for local climate change problems with other like-minded people. Experts and mentors will support your team in your solution-finding process, and we have a small hardware makerZspace available for you to tinker. And, the cherry on top, after the Climathon your team can apply to pitch for access to the Climate-KIC Accelerator programme where you can win up to EUR 85'000. We will provide a great atmosphere and a professional environment to let you prototype as effectively as possible. There will be 24h food & drinks, yoga, inspirational talks, tech support and some sleeping facilities (as if you need it...;)). Challenges The City of Zurich will provide specific challenges related to local energy, food and climate change adaptation problems. These challenges will be published one after another on our website Climathon Zurich. Keep checking for more information. Schedule The 24 hour hack will run from Friday, October 28 to Saturday, October 29 at Impact Hub Zurich, Sihlquai 131, Zurich.

Participants gather for 24 hours to engage in a climate-related problem solving workshop. City citizens around the world take direct climate action in their own cities by coming up with innovative solutions to local climate change problems. Last year’s Climathon saw 19 cities around the world take part in the first-ever Climathon challenge in June 2015, check out this story by the Guardian. The Climathon engaged more than 2.6 million people worldwide to take climate action. Visit climathon.climate-kic.org for an overview of partner organisations and the climate change challenges per city, more cities from around the world will add their challenges in the months ahead. Follow the Climathon on social media via the #Climathon hashtag, and the Climate-KIC channels at twitter.com/climatekic and facebook.com/climatekic.   FAQs   What can/can't I bring to the event? Bring your own hardware, gadgets and software to develop and share with others. Should I come as a team or can I come alone? You can come as a team or alone. At the beginning of the Hackathon we will do a teambuilding session. I cannot program, can I still join the event? Yes you can, we encourage people with various backgrounds to join the event. Innovative solutions to the local climate change problems can take different forms and do not need to include an application. Do I need to have an idea? Can I apply with an idea? You can apply with an idea, and you don't need to have one :). Everything will work.
