Short-cycle, high-output hackathons built around real corporate and infrastructure challenges, turning 48 to 72 hours into deployable concepts.

How it works

We design hackathons that produce working concepts on the partner's own data and problem set, not branding exercises.

Challenge design — partner's real operational questions translated into structured technical challenges that teams can solve in 48 to 96 hours

Applicant funnel — open call, technical screening, and team formation, scaling from 1,200+ registrations to working cohorts of 60–80 participants

On-site delivery — hackathon held inside the partner's own facilities, embedding teams in the operational environment they are designing for

Jury and pilot pipeline — winners selected by the partner's leadership and external jurors, with the strongest concepts moving directly into pilot testing

What the partner gains

A hackathon is venture-clienting compressed into a weekend — instead of one vendor studying a problem, the partner gets parallel attempts at the same problem set with the cost of failure absorbed by the program.

Technical output — concrete concepts addressing live operational questions, with the strongest moving toward pilot deployment Talent surfacing — direct, high-signal relationship with the most technically capable engineers, data scientists, and designers in the market

Cultural modernisation — running a hackathon inside a legacy organisation sends an internal signal as strong as the external one

Institutional positioning — establishes the partner as a modernising operator in the eyes of regulators, media, and the wider ecosystem

Track record

Programs we have designed and operated include the Metro Hackathon — the first hackathon in the history of Baku Metropolitan and the first metro-infrastructure hackathon in Azerbaijan. Held inside the Icherisheher station, 1,200+ registrations were narrowed to 72 participants across 18 teams, with winning AI-based concepts moving into the metro's pilot pipeline. We have also delivered the WaterTech Bootcamp for ADSEA under the EU4ClimateResilience project funded by the EU, GIZ, and OECD.
