We tend to like comfort.  But they also lead us to tunnel vision and make breakthroughs harder. At TAIKAI, we consider ourselves lucky - we work on a daily basis with incredible companies from all over the planet, looking to put their businesses at the forefront of innovation.<img src="https://taikai.azureedge.net/qv3m0tJV2ys5RW0suDnU6-5NgUjNKsL8UK4y3_eNvAE/rs:fit:800:0:0/aHR0cHM6Ly9zdG9yYWdlLmdvb2dsZWFwaXMuY29tL3RhaWthaS1zdG9yYWdlL2ltYWdlcy8zMGQ3N2E2MC0zZTRiLTExZWMtOGZiZS04ZGEyM2QyYTlmZDRkaWVnby1waC1mSXEwdEVUNmxsdy11bnNwbGFzaCgxKS5qcGc" style="width:800px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="open innovation and hackathon examples, ideas" /><h3>What makes a hackathon great?</h3>You don’t need to be a Silicon Valley company to have people committed and ready to find solutions for you. What you need instead is to make sure your hackathon is well-thought, thoroughly prepared, and aligned with the community. This will ensure high levels of engagement and participation, as attendees feel more connected to the event's goals and motivated to contribute their best ideas.We’ve compiled five standout examples of the best open innovation initiatives hosted here at TAIKAI - an all-in-one hackathon platform to host and manage your challenge. Here are the 10 reasons to use an all-in-one hackathon platform such as TAIKAI.<blockquote><a href="https://taikai.network/en/blog/10-reasons-to-use-hackathon-platform" target="_blank">Here are the 10 reasons to use an all-in-one hackathon platform such as TAIKAI. </a></blockquote> In order to come up with this list, we’ve considered the following criteria: <ul><li>Resources provided by organizations </li><li>Challenges quality </li><li>Community Alignment</li><li>Prizes</li></ul>Without further ado, here are the best company hackathon examples and ideas: <h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/blog/starkware-hackathon-case-study" target="_blank">Starknet Winter Hackathon</a></h3><ul><li>390 participants</li><li>43 projects delivered</li><li>Prize pool of $50,000</li></ul>Starkware is a leading blockchain company specializing in zk-rollup technology and scaling the Ethereum blockchain. One of Starkware's scaling solutions is Starknet, a permissionless layer 2 network where any user or developer can deploy smart contracts developed in the Cairo language.This technology was the focal point of the recent Starknet Winter Hackathon, which challenged participants to build innovative applications leveraging Starknet's capabilities.<h3>The goal 🎯</h3>The Starknet Stack is quickly becoming the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAPU22K0YhY&amp;list=PLcIyXLwiPilX2ncKfmXRSUPQ21AN-JaRo&amp;index=7&amp;t=1s" target="_blank">most decentralized L2 stack</a>, which led Starkware to host a <a href="https://taikai.network/en/blog/what-is-a-web3-hackathon" target="_blank">web3 hackathon</a> to accelerate the development of decentralized applications utilizing their technology and engage the developer community in building solutions with their stack.<h3> </h3><h3>Main takeaways ✔️</h3><h3>Trusting the organizational process to hackathon experts is a game-changer 🤝</h3>Organizing a hackathon is no small feat, especially without the right experience or support. That is why Starkware relied on TAIKAI’s consultancy services to streamline the entire organizational process and simplify the operational workload for Starkware.Leveraging our experience in hosting over 180 hackathons, TAIKAI ensured that each phase of the hackathon, from the initial kick-off to the final presentations, was carefully planned.Relying on the experience of hackathon experts like TAIKAI not only alleviates the complexities of organizing such events but also ensures an enriching experience for all participants, judges, and stakeholders involved.<h3>Promotion is key 📣</h3>Promoting the event is a crucial step in attracting the right talent and ensuring the event's successFor the Starknet Winter Hackathon, a multi-channel communication and promotion plan was developed to attract a diverse pool of participants who were interested in the challenges and opportunities presented by the event.Using both organic and paid content, and reaching out to TAIKAI’s 80,000+ builders community as well as external audiences, the event attracted an impressive 390 builders to participate in the hackathon.<blockquote>Learn the full story of how TAIKAI made Starkware’s hackathon a success by reading the complete case study <a href="https://taikai.network/en/blog/starkware-hackathon-case-study" target="_blank">here</a>. </blockquote> <h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/wiener-linien/challenges/tickethon" target="_blank">Tickethon by Wiener Linien</a></h3><ul><li>145 participants </li><li>45 projects delivered </li><li>20,000€ in prizes + extra perks</li></ul>Wiener Linien - Vienna’s public transport operator - is responsible for roughly 180 underground, tram and bus lines. To put it in perspective, on average, there are about 2.6 million passengers using the Wiener Linien network every single day. Not only that, but their public transport vehicles cover a distance of 214,000 kilometers - which is about the same distance as orbiting the earth 5 times! Because public transportation in Vienna uses a gateless ticketing system, they have inspectors inside the vehicles or outside the stations to validate passengers' tickets.This, in turn, takes time. Inspectors try to validate tickets as fast as they can, but there’s always a chance of long waiting lines and overcrowding, depending on the number of passengers at any given period. To make things harder, passengers can use paper or digital tickets, through their WienMobil app. Wiener Linien conducted research, prior to the hackathon, and found out that there’s been a growth in the use of digital tickets. While this might seem good at first glance, it actually wasn’t. It took passengers up to 10 times longer to validate the in-app ticket. The reason?It all comes down to the steps it takes. Commuters have to find their phone, unlock it, find the WienMobil app, open it, find the tickets tab, and then show the ticket. On the contrary, physical tickets were easier to present because it required a lot less steps - passengers had it in hand, in a pocket, or in a wallet most of the time, and just had to show it to the inspector. <h3>The goal 🎯 </h3>Their goal for this hackathon was not to delete the WienMobil app and go back to full-paper tickets, but instead, to find solutions to improve and accelerate the digital ticket validation process. In its core, the challenge was to create a prototype to validate tickets as fast as possible, starting after the passenger located their phone. The winning project would be the one that could achieve 3 goals: solve the problem, ensure a  smooth operation, and improve the passengers' experience.  <h3>Main takeaways ✔️</h3><h3>Power to the people ✊</h3>Using hackathons as an open innovation challenge can be the answer to overcoming many problems. Instead of outsourcing or trying to figure it out in-company, Wiener Linien used the power of the community to aid them.And the community showed up! With almost 150 participants and 45 completed projects, it goes to show that the power of hackathons is enormous. This open hackathon wasn’t meant to reinvent the wheel, either. Instead, the community understood the power and value it provided, knowing they could help millions of people in their daily commute by optimizing a simple process. <h3>Conduct your research 📊</h3>Collecting data has always been important, and more so in today’s digital world. Once you have real, palpable data, you can really understand the scope and dimension of the problem at hand. Knowing that validating digital tickets was taking 10x longer than paper tickets, is better support data than just realizing it was taking more time overall. <h3>Small steps go a long way 👣</h3>As you can see from this example, innovation comes in different sizes and shapes. Something so ordinary, such as showing a ticket to an inspector, can be a costly and inefficient process for the company behind it and its users. Innovation lies everywhere, and every step of the way. <h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/landingjobs/challenges/datachallenge" target="_blank">Data Challenge by Landing.jobs</a></h3><ul><li>142 participants </li><li>14 projects delivered </li><li>1,750€ in prizes + social tokens</li></ul>Landing.jobs is a job marketplace that connects companies with tech professionals, such as software engineers, data scientists, and product managers. Every year, they research and survey the Portuguese tech community and launch their Tech Careers Report: an in-depth report that analyses salaries, schedules, benefits, motivations and other important data in the Portuguese tech industry. <h3>The goal 🎯</h3>The goal for this open innovation hackathon was to improve the Tech Careers Report, by analyzing the raw data and developing ways to improve the quality of the insights.  <h3>Main takeaways ✔️</h3><h3>From the community to the community 🤝 </h3>Landing.jobs leveraged their biggest asset - the community - in their favor. The TCR is made for them. By having a chance to build on top of it, data experts were able to contribute positively to a better analysis that ultimately, can help the community make better and more informed decisions. <h3>Niche down when you have to 🎟 </h3>Even though Landing.jobs has a massive community in the computer science field, they clearly knew the best participants would be the ones interested in data science, specifically. They allowed anyone from the community to join and participate, but the target was clear. Also, who would have more interest in developing a data report other than data geeks?! 😄 <h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/microsoft/challenges/ms-buildingthefuture/overview" target="_blank">Building the Future by Microsoft</a></h3><ul><li>101 participants</li><li>9 projects delivered</li><li>5,000€ in prizes</li></ul>The tech giant Microsoft returned to hackathons in 2021 and brought us the “Building the future Hackathon”. After the tough year of 2020, this hackathon was meant to drive inspiration and innovative ideas to push the boundaries of technology. In more practical ways, the challenge of this open hackathon was to come up with solutions for electric mobility, and power in a more environmentally friendly world 🌎 <h3>The goal 🎯</h3>Microsoft challenged participants with not just one, but five different innovation categories, ranging from turning parked cars into sources of revenue for owners, designing infrastructure for shared electric mobility vehicles, to even using blockchain technology for mobility applications.  <h3>Main takeaways ✔️ </h3><h3>Focus on one category of your business 💡</h3>If your organization is involved in a variety of industries, it may be tempting to organize a hackathon to cover all of them. While this may result in more registrations, the truth is if the themes are too broad, initiatives can become scattered or overly general. In turn, you might end up with a lot of projects or solutions for diverse segments, but only a few within each category.Microsoft, a technological business with a wide range of products and services, opted to focus solely on the subject of electric mobility in this open innovation example.  <h3>Find the right partnership 🤝 </h3>Microsoft partnered with Galp - a Portuguese multinational energy corporation, and gowithflow, a startup working towards sustainable mobility. These hackathon partnerships with relevant companies are fantastic. They strengthen the perception of authority and quality of the hackathon, and also provide support during the event planning and mentoring stages. <h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/instituto-grpcom/challenges/socialhackacom/overview" target="_blank">Social HackaCOM by Instituto GRPCOM</a></h3><ul><li>833 participants </li><li>36 projects delivered </li><li>Prizes comprised of over 1500€ in products (tech gear, mentorships &amp; memberships) </li></ul>Social HackaCOM is an innovation and communication marathon. They focused on digitally connecting academics and professionals with transformative talent potential, who want to work with purpose and achieve a positive social impact. The Brazilian host, Instituto GRPCOM, focuses on establishing projects that adhere to the group's ethical beliefs and corporate social responsibility principles. <h3>The goal 🎯</h3>This innovation hackathon was open to participants from different fields of expertise, ranging from communications, digital marketing, web design and many others. It consisted of four challenges: performance &amp; optimization-based solutions, communication strategies, resource management, and remote activities. <h3>Main takeaways ✔️ </h3><h3>Co-hosts can go a long way 🔥</h3>Instituto GRPCOM had 7 different co-hosts for this hackathon! Having this many companies promoting the event is bound to bring you some incredible results when it comes to the number of innovators that participate in the challenge. And they did not disappoint. With over 800 participants, this is one of the biggest challenges we’ve hosted to date! Also, it was an open innovation challenge, but exclusive to Brazilian residents, which makes this milestone even greater. <h3>Everybody’s welcome 🫂</h3>While in other hackathons niching down was a great option, it’s not always necessary or adequate. For this challenge, it made sense to promote it to a broader audience given the context and challenge characteristics. You should always set clear expectations and goals you want to achieve with a hackathon so that you can later determine what type of participants you want to target. <h3>Now, it’s up to you 🚀</h3>These were only some of the best open innovation examples we’ve hosted here at TAIKAI. The variety of challenges, the scope of the problems and solutions is something quite fascinating to look at when you put them together. From big tech corporations like Microsoft to local companies like Wiener Linien, there’s room for innovation in every industry and every size.Hopefully, these five hackathon ideas and examples provided you with valuable insights to <a href="https://taikai.network/en/blog/how-to-host-a-virtual-hackathon" target="_blank">host your next (or first) hackathon</a>. <h4>Hosting a hackathon can be challenging on its own</h4>That’s why at TAIKAI we developed a complete virtual hackathon platform that’s easy and quick to set up.

Hackathons s&atilde;o uma &oacute;tima maneira de impulsionar a inova&ccedil;&atilde;o aberta - seu objetivo &eacute; encontrar solu&ccedil;&otilde;es para os problemas existentes, desenvolver novos produtos e servi&ccedil;os e acelerar as corpora&ccedil;&otilde;es al&eacute;m do que elas poderiam fazer dentro de casa. N&atilde;o nos interprete mal.&nbsp; <a href="https://taikai.network/en/blog/5-reasons-to-host-an-internal-hackathon" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Hackathons internos</a> tamb&eacute;m s&atilde;o uma &oacute;tima maneira de impulsionar seu neg&oacute;cio, mas ao lan&ccedil;ar um hackathon de inova&ccedil;&atilde;o aberta, voc&ecirc; pode obter resultados de pessoas de todo o mundo, de diferentes origens, perspectivas e campos de especializa&ccedil;&atilde;o.&nbsp; Al&eacute;m disso, &agrave;s vezes o problema n&atilde;o &eacute; apenas desenvolver novas id&eacute;ias, mas deixar de lado os velhos h&aacute;bitos.&nbsp; Os h&aacute;bitos s&atilde;o confort&aacute;veis. N&oacute;s tendemos a gostar de conforto.&nbsp; Mas eles tamb&eacute;m nos levam a uma vis&atilde;o de funil e dificultam os avan&ccedil;os.&nbsp; Na TAIKAI, nos consideramos sortudos - trabalhamos diariamente com empresas incr&iacute;veis de todo o planeta, procurando colocar seus neg&oacute;cios na vanguarda da inova&ccedil;&atilde;o. <img src="https://taikai.azureedge.net/wjhPMFkvSz73I4XrE3ApA_HYqqddwma4L2I4DxVPNzk/rs:fit:800:0:0/aHR0cHM6Ly9zdG9yYWdlLmdvb2dsZWFwaXMuY29tL3RhaWthaS1zdG9yYWdlL2ltYWdlcy9lYTM2Y2U2MC02ZmNhLTExZWMtOTI4Yy1mM2JmYWJhODU3OWFibG9i" style="width: 800px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> <h3>O que torna um hackathon fant&aacute;stico?</h3>Voc&ecirc; n&atilde;o precisa ser uma empresa de vale de sil&iacute;cio para ter pessoas comprometidas e prontas para encontrar solu&ccedil;&otilde;es para voc&ecirc;.&nbsp; Ao inv&eacute;s disso, o que voc&ecirc; precisa &eacute; ter certeza de que seu hackathon est&aacute; bem pensado, completamente preparado e alinhado com a comunidade. <blockquote>Nota r&aacute;pida: Estamos trabalhando em um guia completo para preparar um hackathon. Assine nossa newsletter e n&oacute;s o notificaremos quando ela estiver dispon&iacute;vel!</blockquote> Por isso, compilamos quatro dos melhores exemplos de inova&ccedil;&atilde;o aberta hospedados aqui na TAIKAI - uma plataforma tudo-em-um para hospedar e gerenciar seu desafio.&nbsp; Escolhemos a dedo estes exemplos, n&atilde;o apenas com base em seus resultados, mas todo o processo que ficou por tr&aacute;s da organiza&ccedil;&atilde;o e prepara&ccedil;&atilde;o do evento.&nbsp; Para chegar a esta lista, consideramos os seguintes crit&eacute;rios:&nbsp; <ul><li>Recursos fornecidos pelas organiza&ccedil;&otilde;es&nbsp;</li><li>Desafios da qualidade&nbsp;</li><li>Alinhamento comunit&aacute;rio&nbsp;</li><li>Pr&ecirc;mios</li></ul> Sem mais demoras, aqui est&atilde;o os melhores exemplos e ideias de hackathon de empresas: <h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/wiener-linien/challenges/tickethon" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tickethon por Wiener Linien</a></h3><ul><li>145 participantes&nbsp;</li><li>45 projetos entregues&nbsp;</li><li>20.000 euros em pr&ecirc;mios + regalias extras</li></ul> Wiener Linien - o operador de transporte p&uacute;blico de Viena - &eacute; respons&aacute;vel por cerca de 180 linhas de metr&ocirc;, bonde e &ocirc;nibus.&nbsp; Para coloc&aacute;-lo em perspectiva, em m&eacute;dia, h&aacute; cerca de 2,6 milh&otilde;es de passageiros utilizando a rede Wiener Linien todos os dias. N&atilde;o apenas isso, mas seus ve&iacute;culos de transporte p&uacute;blico cobrem uma dist&acirc;ncia de 214.000 quil&ocirc;metros - que &eacute; aproximadamente a mesma dist&acirc;ncia que orbita a terra 5 vezes! Como o transporte p&uacute;blico em Viena utiliza um sistema de bilhetagem sem portas, eles t&ecirc;m inspetores dentro dos ve&iacute;culos ou fora das esta&ccedil;&otilde;es para validar os bilhetes dos passageiros. Isto, por sua vez, leva tempo.&nbsp; Os inspetores tentam validar as passagens o mais r&aacute;pido poss&iacute;vel, mas h&aacute; sempre uma chance de longas filas de espera e superlota&ccedil;&atilde;o, dependendo do n&uacute;mero de passageiros em um determinado per&iacute;odo. Para tornar as coisas mais dif&iacute;ceis, os passageiros podem usar bilhetes em papel ou digitais, atrav&eacute;s de seu aplicativo WienMobil.&nbsp; A Wiener Linien realizou uma pesquisa, antes do hackathon, e descobriu que houve um crescimento no uso de bilhetes digitais.&nbsp; Embora isto possa parecer bom &agrave; primeira vista, na verdade n&atilde;o foi. Os passageiros demoraram at&eacute; 10 vezes mais para validar o bilhete na app. O motivo? Tudo se resume aos passos que ele d&aacute;. Os passageiros t&ecirc;m que encontrar seu telefone, desbloque&aacute;-lo, encontrar o aplicativo WienMobil, abri-lo, encontrar a guia de ingressos e depois mostrar o ingresso. Pelo contr&aacute;rio, os bilhetes f&iacute;sicos eram mais f&aacute;ceis de apresentar porque exigiam muito menos passos - os passageiros o tinham na m&atilde;o, em um bolso ou em uma carteira a maior parte do tempo, e s&oacute; tinham que mostr&aacute;-lo ao inspetor. <h4>O objetivo 🎯</h4> O objetivo para este hackathon n&atilde;o era excluir o aplicativo WienMobil e voltar para bilhetes de papel, mas, em vez disso, encontrar solu&ccedil;&otilde;es para melhorar e acelerar o processo de valida&ccedil;&atilde;o de bilhetes digitais.&nbsp; Em sua ess&ecirc;ncia, o desafio era criar um prot&oacute;tipo para validar bilhetes o mais r&aacute;pido poss&iacute;vel, come&ccedil;ando depois que o passageiro localizasse seu telefone.&nbsp; O projeto vencedor seria aquele que poderia alcan&ccedil;ar 3 objetivos: resolver o problema, garantir uma opera&ccedil;&atilde;o suave e melhorar a experi&ecirc;ncia dos passageiros.&nbsp; <h3>Principais conclus&otilde;es ✔️</h3><h4>Poder para o povo ✊</h4> A utiliza&ccedil;&atilde;o de hackathons como um desafio de inova&ccedil;&atilde;o aberta pode ser a resposta para superar muitos problemas. Ao inv&eacute;s de terceirizar ou tentar descobrir na empresa, a Wiener Linien usou o poder da comunidade para ajud&aacute;-los. E a comunidade apareceu! Com quase 150 participantes e 45 projetos conclu&iacute;dos, isso vai mostrar que o poder dos hackathons &eacute; enorme.&nbsp; Esta maratona aberta tamb&eacute;m n&atilde;o foi feita para reinventar a roda. Em vez disso, a comunidade entendeu o poder e o valor que ela proporcionava, sabendo que poderia ajudar milh&otilde;es de pessoas em seu deslocamento di&aacute;rio, otimizando um processo simples. <h4>Conduza sua pesquisa 📊</h4> A coleta de dados sempre foi importante, e mais ainda no mundo digital de hoje. Uma vez que voc&ecirc; tenha dados reais e palp&aacute;veis, voc&ecirc; pode realmente compreender o escopo e a dimens&atilde;o do problema em quest&atilde;o. Saber que validar bilhetes digitais estava demorando 10 vezes mais do que bilhetes em papel &eacute; um suporte de dados melhor do que apenas perceber que estava demorando mais tempo em geral. <h4>Pequenos passos v&atilde;o muito longe 👣</h4> Como voc&ecirc; pode ver com este exemplo, a inova&ccedil;&atilde;o vem em diferentes tamanhos e formatos. Algo t&atilde;o comum, como mostrar um bilhete para um inspetor, pode ser um processo caro e ineficiente para a empresa por tr&aacute;s dele e seus usu&aacute;rios. A inova&ccedil;&atilde;o est&aacute; em toda parte, e em cada passo do caminho. <h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/landingjobs/challenges/datachallenge" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Data Challenge por Landing.jobs</a></h3><ul><li>142 participantes&nbsp;</li><li>14 projetos entregues&nbsp;</li><li>1.750 euros em pr&ecirc;mios + fichas sociais</li></ul> Landing.jobs &eacute; uma plataforma que conecta empresas com profissionais de tecnologia, tais como engenheiros de software, cientistas de dados e gerentes de produtos.&nbsp; Todos os anos, eles pesquisam e questionam a comunidade tecnol&oacute;gica portuguesa e lan&ccedil;am seu Relat&oacute;rio de Carreira T&eacute;cnica: um relat&oacute;rio aprofundado que analisa sal&aacute;rios, cronogramas, benef&iacute;cios, motiva&ccedil;&otilde;es e outros dados importantes na ind&uacute;stria tecnol&oacute;gica portuguesa. <h4>O objetivo 🎯</h4> O objetivo para esta maratona de inova&ccedil;&atilde;o aberta era melhorar o Relat&oacute;rio de Carreira T&eacute;cnica, analisando os dados brutos e desenvolver maneiras de melhorar a qualidade dos insights.&nbsp; <h3>Principais conclus&otilde;es ✔️</h3><h4> </h4><h4>Da comunidade, para a comunidade 🤝&nbsp;</h4> A Landing.jobs alavancou seu maior patrim&ocirc;nio - a comunidade - em seu favor. O RCT &eacute; feito para eles, afinal.&nbsp;Ao ter a oportunidade de construir sobre ele, os especialistas em dados foram capazes de contribuir positivamente para uma melhor an&aacute;lise que, em &uacute;ltima inst&acirc;ncia, pode ajudar a comunidade a tomar decis&otilde;es melhores e mais informadas. <h4>Apostar num nicho &eacute; uma excelente op&ccedil;&atilde;o 🎟&nbsp;</h4> Embora a Landing.jobs tenha uma comunidade enorme no campo da inform&aacute;tica, eles sabiam claramente que os melhores participantes seriam os interessados na ci&ecirc;ncia dos dados, especificamente. Eles permitiam que qualquer pessoa da comunidade se juntasse e participasse, mas o alvo era claro. Al&eacute;m disso, quem teria mais interesse em desenvolver um relat&oacute;rio de dados al&eacute;m dos geeks dos dados?! 😄 <h3> </h3><h3><a href="https://taikai.network/en/microsoft/challenges/ms-buildingthefuture/overview" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Building the Future por Microsoft e Galp</a></h3><ul><li>101 participantes</li><li>9 projetos entregues</li><li>5.000 euros em pr&ecirc;mios</li></ul> O gigante da tecnologia Microsoft voltou para os hackathons em 2021 e nos trouxe o Hackahton &quot;Building the Future&quot;.&nbsp; Depois de um ano dif&iacute;cil em 2020, este hackathon foi feito para impulsionar a inspira&ccedil;&atilde;o e as id&eacute;ias inovadoras para expandir os limites da tecnologia.&nbsp; De maneira mais pr&aacute;tica, o desafio deste hackathon aberto era encontrar solu&ccedil;&otilde;es sobre mobilidade el&eacute;trica e alimentar um mundo mais amig&aacute;vel ao meio ambiente 🌎 <h4>O objetivo 🎯</h4> A Microsoft desafiou os participantes com n&atilde;o apenas uma, mas cinco categorias diferentes de inova&ccedil;&atilde;o, que v&atilde;o desde transformar carros estacionados em fontes de receita para propriet&aacute;rios, projetando infra-estrutura para ve&iacute;culos de mobilidade el&eacute;trica compartilhada, at&eacute; mesmo usando tecnologia de blockchain para aplica&ccedil;&otilde;es de mobilidade.&nbsp;<h3> </h3><h3>Principais conclus&otilde;es ✔️&nbsp;</h3><h4>Concentre-se em uma categoria do seu neg&oacute;cio💡</h4> Se sua organiza&ccedil;&atilde;o est&aacute; envolvida em uma variedade de ind&uacute;strias, pode ser tentador organizar um hackathon para cobrir todas elas. Embora isto possa resultar em mais registros, a verdade &eacute; que se os temas forem muito amplos, as iniciativas podem se tornar dispersas ou excessivamente gerais.&nbsp; Por sua vez, voc&ecirc; pode acabar com muitos projetos ou solu&ccedil;&otilde;es para diversos segmentos, mas apenas alguns dentro de cada categoria. A Microsoft, que tem um neg&oacute;cio tecnol&oacute;gico com uma ampla gama de produtos e servi&ccedil;os, optou por focar exclusivamente no tema da mobilidade el&eacute;trica neste exemplo de inova&ccedil;&atilde;o aberta.&nbsp; <h4>Encontre a parceria certa 🤝</h4> A Microsoft fez uma parceria com a Galp - uma multinacional portuguesa de energia, e a gowithflow, uma start-up que trabalha para uma mobilidade sustent&aacute;vel. Estas parcerias de hackathon com empresas relevantes s&atilde;o fant&aacute;sticas.
