Hi folks, Kiwi.com is organizing a worldwide hackathon targeted at improving the travel experience, to make it smarter, more sustainable, and more accessible. They have some resources available for folks who want to organize a local event in their community. Here is the description from their website:
At Kiwi.com, we care. We love the world of travel, but we’re aware of its dark side. That’s why we’re inviting everyone to help us reshape the way we travel to make it smarter, sustainable and accessible for everyone.
Let’s celebrate World Tourism Day by attending and organising travel hackathons all over the globe on 27 September. We want to bring together engineers, designers, and innovators: providing them with a creative and supportive environment, and encouraging their ideas on how to hack travel.
We hope to trigger a global #HackTravel movement that would become a platform for constant improvement in the travel industry. Here are the main topics for this year.
- Sustainability
- Accessibility
- Community
