Empowered to Innovate: My Unforgettable Hackathon Experience 2024 NEXT

Joining the Hackathon Ecogreen has been an exhilarating experience for me, especially since it was my first time participating in such a dynamic and impactful event. This program taught me the true value of collaboration, innovation, and sustainability as we worked together to tackle real-world environmental challenges. I was thrilled to connect with new friends from various countries, sharing ideas and learning from diverse perspectives.

The impact of this event goes beyond personal growth—it inspired me to contribute to creating sustainable solutions that benefit communities and the environment. Collaborating with a passionate team to solve client challenges has shown me how teamwork can lead to meaningful change.

Participating in Hackathon 2024 was an incredible and eye-opening experience. The event brought together passionate individuals committed to finding innovative solutions to address real-world problems. It was inspiring to see how technology and creativity could address pressing societal challenges. Being part of this hackathon showed me the potential we have to make a difference through collaboration and innovation, and it gave me a renewed sense of purpose.

Winning first place with my team was an unforgettable moment. Our success wasn’t just about the technical achievement; rather, it was about creating a solution that could positively impact people’s lives. Each member of our team brought unique skills and perspectives, and together, we developed something meaningful that addressed a real need. This experience reinforced my belief in the power of teamwork and our ability to contribute to meaningful change.

Hackathon 2024 taught me that innovation can be a force for good. Beyond the technical and creative skills I gained, I was reminded of the importance of empathy and understanding the broader impact of our work. I’m incredibly proud to have been part of an event that empowers participants to create solutions with social value. It’s an experience that will continue to inspire me as I move forward in my journey.

Joining the EcoGreen Hackathon was a completely new and challenging experience for me. I was paired with teammates who were familiar with the competition and had prior experience participating in similar events. I entered the Hackathon without knowing what to expect and came away with many valuable lessons. As a debater, I already had substantial knowledge about sustainability and global efforts in this area. However, through the Hackathon, I was able to witness the ideas I had debated and discussed being transformed into real-life actions—actions that not only support the sustainability goals the world is striving for but also empower the individuals driving them.

The EcoGreen Hackathon is not only an excellent opportunity to learn about sustainability but also a fantastic platform to network with like-minded people. I had the privilege of working with fun, talented, and brilliant individuals throughout the event—an opportunity that doesn’t come around often. Personally, I believe the networking aspect is what made the Hackathon such a memorable experience for me.

I highly recommend participating in Hackathon competitions at least once to anyone who’s curious. As I mentioned earlier, it’s not just a great learning experience—it’s also an incredible networking platform.

It was an incredible opportunity to experience the Hackathon event. I really cherished the moments with new friends and lecturers from various universities, as well as our friends from a Belgium and Netherlands. I learned a lot about green entrepreneur in this event and it’s interesting how all of the participants gather their perspectives on sustainability and green entrepreneur in helping the SMEs to solve their problems. I also learned how to pitch our ideas, brainstorm creatively, being critical on our own ideas, analyze stakeholders and many more which will help me in developing the society in the future. It is an honor to participate in this wonderful event.

For me, by attending EcoGreen Hackaton, I can enchance my knowledge with other students and unlock a new thoughts through problems assigned in each group. With students on other campus throughout Indonesia, Netherlands, and Belgium really an unforgettable experience. Throughout the seminar we know their cultures and how they each have their own way to solve a problem. This bootcamp focuses on entrepreneurship and the sustainability of our surroundings. Creating unique ways to solve situations and improving lives through small things by contributing ideas to the community by planning certain ways and take action. From this, I would like to thank you to all of the committee of this bootcamp and all the friends throughout the bootcamp for making this an unforgettable experience

Glad to be part of hackaton 2024 because not only were we given new ways of thinking to tackle sustainability problems but also having fun at the same time, bonding with friends and getting to meet a lot of new friends with different backgrounds! I believe with hackaton being held, not only helping the SMEs, but also helping students like me to be more aware of green entrepreneurs and taking sustainable behaviour for their surroundings
