Hackathon with HighFive och Halmstad Municipality

How can we create the public environments of the future using new technology, creativity, and fresh perspectives?

During 24 creative hours, you and other students will explore a real societal case from the City Environment Department of Halmstad Municipality, focusing on how the meeting places of the future can become smarter, safer, and more sustainable.

During the hackathon, you will work in teams where you will think differently, develop ideas, and build solutions together with students from different fields of study.

During the 24 hours, you will:
- develop ideas
- collaborate across different fields of study
- build solutions
- pitch your concepts to a jury

You do not need to have participated in a hackathon before to join, and you do not need to know how to code or be “technical.” HighFive Hackathon is about thinking differently, creating together, and testing ideas with other students.

Come as you are, no matter what you study.

We believe that the best ideas emerge when people with different perspectives come together, and therefore the hackathon is open to all students at Halmstad University.
