EHL Hackathon Sports & Vitality

The EHL Hackathon Sports & Vitality is a gathering of creative spirits, technical minds and passionate athletes that develop new ideas and innovations on Sports, Vitality and Active Lifestyles during the Euro Hockey League on April 14-17. 

During this EHL Hackathon, several cases about Sports & Vitality are presented by clients. Everyone can choose any project they like and form a group at the event. If you’re already working on a great idea that relates to the topic, then you can develop that further as well!

We’ll provide you with prototyping gear such as 3D Printers, arduino’s, soldering stations and tools as well datasets and IoT-components. Next to this, you’ll be treated with breakfast, lunch and dinner at the EHL Hackathon location, which is next to the main field of HC Oranje-Rood.

Over the course of the weekend, the group creates an awesome concept and builds a prototype that demonstrates how it works. A final presentation with a demo then concludes the event on Monday after which the judges will decide who wins the EHL Hackathon.

The first prize is a ticket to join the 8-day summerschool in July at Tsukuba University in Japan!
