Services

Hackathons are 2-3 day events where we get a diverse group of people to form teams. We gather insights, understand what the customer desires based on their pain points. Then, we run a brainstorming session to come up with ideas, create a working prototype to test its feasibility which we test with the customer, and then come up with a viable business model to pitch to a judging panel.

Hack Days comprise of participants forming groups to deeply understand the customer, allowing them to then come up with ideas and concepts to pitch at the end of the day.

Hack Sessions are short sprints where the pain point or opportunity is already clearly defines and we ask participants to come up with their big, bold and bright ideas.

"True innovation is not just technologies, it creates movements and creates change."
