This sponsorship comes in line with the company’s commitment to supporting the education
sector with a special focus on youth-oriented digital development programs.
The hackathon was arranged to support the digital evolution of this era, with
the aim to drive innovation within the younger generation and encourage them to
adopt new solutions to existing problems, while educating them on the evolution
of the ICT industry.
The hackathon is a platform which facilitates the
meeting of minds, backgrounds and skills to collaborate and come up with an
innovative tech-based approach to solve an existing problem. The goal of a
hackathon is to create usable software or hardware with the goal of creating a
functioning product by the end of the event, and the winning teams will also
get the chance to win valuable cash prizes.
Batelco aims to launch such initiatives and
events in alignment with its community efforts to contribute towards its growth
and development. This initiative forms part of Batelco’s
continuous efforts to empower the society in which it operates, by facilitating
the exchange of knowledge, experience and different skill sets across a number
of different platforms.
