UPPER Hackathon Valencia 2024
it's #UPPERHACKATHON time otra vez
The 4th Hackathon will occur in Valencia, Eu Green Capital 2024, next 10-11 June. As the European Green Capital in 2024, València aims to be the foremost European forum for reflection and the definition of urban sustainability strategies, with a focus on designing healthy and livable cities for its citizens. In response to this significant challenge, the City Council of València is actively preparing a program of events and activities to unfold throughout the upcoming year.
The UPPER Hackathon Valencia 2024 is a 2-day on-site event for multinational and multidisciplinary teams of students, developers, entrepreneurs, etc. to brainstorm and develop innovative solutions to collaborate in transforming public transport, focusing on the following topics:
- Mobility infrastructure (EMT/Ajuntament de València)
- Data-driven mobility service (UPV)
- Human-centered design (IBV)
- IoT design (ETRA)
In overall the problem to be solved is the gap between Mobility as a Service (MaaS) and Mobility as a Right (MaaR) to ensure an innovative, inclusive and convenient user experience at bus stops.
UPPER partners, along with the Youth For Public Transport (Y4PT) Foundation, are looking for bright minds who could help advance this transition, benefitting all citizens. We are inviting any young professional, student, or start-up to participate! We invite students and young professionals with an interest in technology, design, creativity, innovation, digitalization, and business development, who can contribute to improving mobility for the public, to a 2-day hackathon. Are you interested in transforming your city into a more sustainable one?
