Do hackathons sound scary? Don’t worry, you’re not alone!

In this webinar, we’ll share our stories about why you don’t need to be scared and why you should attend hackathons. And how you can get the most out of hackathons!

At Ericsson, hackathons enable us to concentrate on something we’re passionate about with like-minded people. It can be that you’re passionate about coding or even hacking. But your passion can also be something different. You might want to learn about new methodologies or about new tools. You might want to improve ways of working, or design new team building activities. Everything goes!

Hackathons give us time to innovate, time to experiment, time to concentrate and time to learn. Join the webinar and learn about our hackathon culture!

 

Time to innovate, Ericsson.

 

With recordable and free webinars, we answer your questions and wishes. If you want to ask your questions to the speaker in advance, you can email them to info@mimmitkoodaa.fi with the subject “Webinars”. The facilitators will take the questions into account when preparing. You can also submit requests for new content by e-mail to info@mimmitkoodaa.fi
