List of hackathons in Tilburg, Netherlands in 2018

  MolenGeek Event Eco Circular Et si, au lieu de jeter, on réparait, on recyclait, on réutilisait ? MolenGeek et leurs partenaires organisent un hackathon autour de 7 grands challenges qui touchent à toutes les facettes de l'économie circulaire. L'objectif est de répondre à ces défis en créant des startups et des applications le temps d'un week-end. Véritable sujet de société et moteur économique, l'économie circulaire est système de production et de consommation qui fonctionne en boucle, se passant ainsi de la notion de déchet. En effet, l'objectif est de produire des produits et des services tout en limitant la consommation et le gaspillage des matières premières et des sources d'énergies non renouvelables. D'après une étude conjointe de Agoria et de Sirris, d’ici 2020, l'économie circulaire permettra à l’économie belge de créer 36.000 emplois supplémentaires et 3,6 milliards de valeur ajoutée en plus, soit une hausse du PIB belge de 1,04 % en novembre 2017.    #MolenGreen, le hackathon  Venez contribuer à l'amélioration de votre Région et relevez l'un des challenges en matière d'économie circulaire le week-end du 20, 21 et 22 avril 2018 !

Wanneer we gaan bouwen, verdwijnt er natuur. Dat moet stoppen: we hebben de natuur nodig om een gezonder en gelukkiger leven te leiden. Hoe kunnen we als bouwsector de natuur respecteren en zelfs versterken? Hoe doen we dat met grootschalige impact? Hoe kunnen het eerstvolgende project al aan de slag? 
Deze challenge staat centraal tijdens de Open Hackathon op 19 april op #Buildingholland. Je werkt samen met een team van studenten en professionals onder begeleiding van architect Lydia Fraaije. Aan het einde van de dag heb je samen met een team de oplossing ontworpen en presenteer je deze aan de opdrachtgever; gemeente Boxtel. Leerzaam, inspirerend en concreet. Ben je ontwerper, architect of gewoon bevlogen van natuur of bouw? En wil jij je ideeën inbrengen op een plek waar we het kunnen gaan beproeven in een innovatief bouwproject in Boxtel? Doe mee en schrijf je in!  Meer info: https://startupbouw.com/5de-dch-op-19-april-a-s/   en op www.buildingholland.nl

L'objectif est de répondre à ces défis en créant des startups et des applications le temps d'un week-end. Afin d'en savoir plus sur ce hackathon, les challenges ou encore le déroulé du week-end, nous vous invitons jeudi de 18h à  20h à notre séance d'information à MolenGeek. >> Lien vers la page d'inscription du hackathon : https://molengeek-eco-circular.eventbrite.fr     Les partenaires      

Rejoignez-nous pour la session de pitches qui clôturera le Hackathon! Vous aurez l'opportunité de découvrir de nombreux profils de développeurs talentueux à la recherche d'un emploi. Bruxelles Formation, le Microsoft Innovation Center Brussels et le CIRB (Centre d’Informatique pour la Région Bruxelloise) ont le plaisir d’annoncer la tenue du Hackathon Smart IoT les 5 et 6 avril prochains. Ce hackathon, destiné exclusivement aux candidats de Bruxelles Formation, fera la part belle aux Smart Cities et à l’IoT (Internet of Things).  L’objectif de Brussels Smart City est de relever les défis du développement urbain de la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale, dans trois dimensions fondamentales : le développement durable en réponse aux enjeux écologique. le développement humain en réponse aux enjeux sociaux. le développement économique en réponse aux enjeux de prospérité. Les technologies ne sont pas une fin en soi, mais un outil, dans la conception de la ville intelligente de la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale. Lors de ce Hackathon Smart IoT, les candidats de Bruxelles Formation seront répartis en 5 équipes, chacune composée de 2 développeurs front-end, de deux développeurs back-end et d’un étudiant au profil business. Ce dernier se concentrera sur la présentation à faire au jury en fin de hackathon. Ces 5 équipes se verront attribuer un thème parmi : -          Les capteurs de son : comment mesurer les niveaux sonores dans les lieux publics -          Les capteurs de pollution : comment mesurer les niveaux de pollution dans les lieux publics -          Les capteurs de mouvement : comment vérifier et informer sur l’utilisation en temps réel des places pour personnes à mobilité réduite -          Comment optimiser l’acheminement de produits locaux à Bruxelles. Les étudiants travailleront sous l’égide de professionnels du secteur : formateurs de Bruxelles Formation, informaticiens du CIRB et experts du MIC afin de les aiguiller, répondre à leurs questions et les aider à faire aboutir leurs projets. Les résultats de ces travaux seront présentés le vendredi 6 avril à 16h devant un jury d’experts et face à un public composé d’entreprises. Un drink clôturera ce hackathon. OMSCHRIJVING Afspraak op de pitchsessie als waardige afsluiter van de hackathon! U kunt er diverse profielen ontdekken van talentrijke ontwikkelaars die werk zoeken. Bruxelles Formation, het Microsoft Innovation Center Brussels en het CIBG (Centrum voor Informatica voor het Brusselse Gewest) hebben het genoegen u de Smart IoT Hackathon te mogen aankondigen, die op 5 en 6 april aanstaande plaatsvindt. Deze hackathon richt zich uitsluitend tot de kandidaten van Bruxelles Formation en legt de focus op Smart Cities en IoT (Internet of Things). Brussels Smart City wil de uitdagingen inzake stadsontwikkeling in het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest aangaan door drie fundamentele dimensies voor het voetlicht te brengen: duurzame ontwikkeling als antwoord op de uitdagingen inzake milieu. menselijke ontwikkeling als antwoord op de maatschappelijke uitdagingen. economische ontwikkeling als antwoord op de uitdagingen inzake welvaart. Technologie is geen doel op zich, maar een hulpmiddel om vorm te geven aan het imago van het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest als Smart City. Op deze Smart IoT hackathon worden de kandidaten van Bruxelles Formation in vijf teams ingedeeld, elk bestaande uit twee front-end ontwikkelaars, twee back-end ontwikkelaars en een student met een businessprofiel. Deze laatste zal werk maken van de presentatie die bij afsluiting van de hackathon aan de jury wordt gegeven. Deze 5 teams krijgen één van de volgende thema’s toegewezen: - Geluidssensoren: hoe kunnen wij de geluidsniveaus in openbare ruimten meten - Vervuilingssensoren: hoe kunnen wij de vervuilingsgraad in openbare ruimten meten - Bewegingssensoren: hoe kunnen wij het gebruik van plaatsen voor personen met beperkte mobiliteit in realtime monitoren en hierover informeren - Methoden voor een betere aanvoer van lokale producten in Brussel. De studenten worden begeleid door beroepsmensen uit de sector: lesgevers van Bruxelles Formation, informatici van het CIBG en deskundigen van het MIC die hen wegwijs maken, hun vragen beantwoorden en hen helpen hun projecten tot een goed einde te brengen. De resultaten van deze werkzaamheden worden op vrijdag 6 april om 16.00 uur voorgesteld aan een jury van deskundigen en voor een publiek van mensen uit het bedrijfsleven. Deze hackathon wordt afgesloten met een drink.

Mixed reality encompasses a wide range of experiences that previously were considered to be only augmented reality or only virtual reality. In mixed reality, people, places, and objects from your physical and virtual worlds merge together in a blended environment that becomes your canvas.  Interacting with holograms in mixed reality enables you to visualize and work with your digital content as part of your real world. Realize mixed reality’s promise with Microsoft HoloLens. In this developer session, you will learn about Mixed Reality and the HoloLens and get a hands-on introduction to developing applications for the Windows Mixed Reality platform. Your host of the day will be Nick Trogh, Senior Technical Evangelist at Microsoft. A lunch will be offered during the session.  Prerequisites: This is a hands-on developer session so bring your developer laptop. If you already have a HoloLens, make sure to bring it too! :) We will be using the Unity middleware to develop applications – this session is not an introduction to Unity, so make sure you’re proficient with Unity development. There are great learning resources available on the Unity website. Make sure your laptop has the necessary software installed on it – you don’t want to miss out on the hands-on exercises because you need to install the tools! Agenda: 9:30-12:15:  Introduction to Mixed Reality and the Hololens Developing for Windows Mixed Reality Hands-on-lab: introduction to Windows Mixed Reality development  12:15-13:00: Lunch (included) 13:00-17:00: Hackathon

Op 30 en 31 maart 2018 organiseert Info Support in samenwerking met Paaspop de tweede editie van de IT Hackathon. Wat gaan we doen?
