    EmergencEye® Hackathon am Ring

    An event that you should not miss, meeting more than 100 programmers, coders, designers and business experts to build software solutions around emergency case communication.


    WHY

    More than 300.000 People suffer from sudden cardiac arrest every year in central Europe alone.

    Less than 10% of these people survive this life-threatening situation, resulting on more than 700 deaths every day and these numbers have not changed significantly for years. 

    In more than 60% of those cases smartphones and thus high-performance computers are used for the communication between Emergency control centers and bystanders.

    While smartphones have been used as telephones only in the past, the Project aims to enable remote access to bystander held smartphones  incl. leverage of smartphone based functionalities like Vitalsensoric features.

    The EU-commissioned EIT Health Initiative is supporting the development of EmergencyEye®, a technology that will reliably guarantee remote access to smartphone-based information and functions in health crises and emergency situations. EmergencyEye® will enable people in health crises and emergency situations to share more comprehensive information including Geo-location and video live streams with professional service organizations and thereby receive timely and improved support and guidance.

    What

    The RAMSES (Remote Access to Medical Information on Smartphones during Emergencies and Health CriseS) consortium and various project partners commence the EmergencEye® Hackathon am Ring to create software solutions that have not been available before. Hackers, coders, designers and business people will join teams to innovate but also to discuss future commercialization opportunities and build business models.

    How

    More than 40 mentors, coaches and experts will support the teams during the entire Hackathon. Also Key notes and educational sessions (Design Thinking, Business Modeling, Presentation Training, IP and Trademark protection etc.)  will complete the Hackathon program.
