Idea to Prototype in just 3 days
During the BTP Hackathon, participating customers get hands-on with the SAP Business Technology Platform to solve a real use case in your organization, all in 3 days of hacking.
Customers leverage the powerful capabilities of BTP and compete to deliver a working prototype alongside a best business story of their use case to a panel of judges. We have a series of recognitions and the best teams get rewarded for their creativity and innovation!
You will work alongside our SAP teams, partners, and of course your colleagues to help you ideate, design, and innovate your solution from scratch.
Our Goal:​ We want to help customers harness the power of SAP BTP and tackle a key business problem with a working prototype in just 2.5 days
When:​ The BTP Hackathon will take place over 3 days from October 29-31, 2024
Location: SAP Offices across Canada and the United States
How does it work?
Prep for Hackathon:​ Customers work with our SAP Solution Advisory team and partners to ideate and architect a use case suitable for the hackathon through discovery and design thinking. You'll come into the hackathon with a clear goal in mind.
Day 1:​ Participants learn of the expectations and are introduced to our partners and how they can help accelerate innovation in your organization. After that, it's time to start hacking!
Day 2:​ Hear from a few more of our partners, and spend the day working along our teams to build the prototype out.
Day 3:​ Time to put it all together. Finalize your prototype and prepare your presentation. You will share your business story to a panel of judges who then vote on the best results. After that, hear our rewards and recognition!
