Hackathon Overview
Hackathon@WEF 2025 was held in Davos, Switzerland from January 21 to 23, 2025, attracting 23 registered developers and 7 projects were approved. The event aims to address global challenges through AI, data science and advanced technologies. Participants worked in teams, both in person at Lab 42 and the Davos Innovation Center and online, focusing on creating solutions with real-world application potential.
The social platform built by DIGITAL LOUNGE@WEF gives developers the opportunity to connect with CEOs, government officials, entrepreneurs and thought leaders, showcase projects to high-quality audiences, increase exposure and lay the foundation for career development; the beautiful environment of the Swiss Alps, supplemented by free accommodation, meals and conference materials, optimizes the participation experience; a prize pool of more than 10,000 Swiss francs provides support for subsequent innovation. In addition, the collaborative atmosphere created by the Davos Innovation Center has effectively promoted the global innovation process.
