What is a hackathon?



A hackathon is a sprint-like event in which small groups of young professionals search for innovative and creative solutions for everyday problems. The result can be a program, a prototype, a test model, a tool a design solution or a concept.



What is Citython Barcelona?



A 3-day hackathon that takes place in Barcelona and brings together creative and inquisitive minds to solve the gentrification problem occurring in the historic centers of Barcelona. Young professionals from the fields of urbanism and computer and data sciences will be brought together in the same place for fun and an intense session of co-creation, hacking and collaboration. The difference from a typical hackathon is that the Citython requires the analysis of data to understand a problem and reach to a conclusion.
