AE Hackathon 2017: Fast & Furious

From idea to functional implementation in just 36 hours? It’s possible!

Each year, AE organizes a hackathon in which our consultants team up with our customers to come up with innovative ideas and turn them into working products or services. 

Participating in the AE Hackathon can lead to wonderful results, exemplified recently by bringr, the innovative parcel delivery service we developed in co-creation with bpost and which won the Data News ICT Project of the Year Award 2016.

How does the AE Hackathon work?

The AE Hackathon is a great opportunity for multidisciplinary teams of analysts, developers and product owners to explore new technologies, insights and business models, allowing them to provide answers to the increasingly complex challenges people, organizations and companies are facing today.

At the end of these intense two days, the team with the best executed idea walks home with a nice AE Hackathon award.

Why we organize the AE Hackathon

We organize the AE Hackathon to boost innovation, at AE and at our customers. Previous editions of the AE Hackathon have proven to what kind of value these sessions can lead for our customers. A great example of a service that has its roots in one of our hackathons is bringr, the innovative bpost app that won the 2016 Data News ICT Project of the Year award.

Join in on the fun

Each year, we invite our customers to actively participate in our AE Hackathon by making their API available, supplying data, attending the closing presentation or by taking part themselves - contact your account manager for more information.
