FAQ

1. What is the Hackathon Mobility BCN?

The HMBCN is an event where teams collaborate on a project within a tight time limit. At the SEAT Hackathon, teams of 3 to 5 collaborate over a weekend to provide a solution to a specific, real situation or problem while learning more about methodologies, techniques, technology, and networking with like-minded participants. Industry professionals from our sponsors will share their experiences with you, and support and guide your projects from a technical perspective. The winners will be chosen by a panel of judges comprised of top industry professionals. So, attend our hackathon, assemble a team, build a groundbreaking project, learn and make new exciting connections, and finally win prizes!

2. When is the application deadline?

The deadline is on the 18th of March. However, you may still try applying after the deadline.

3. How much does it cost?

Hackathon Mobility BCN is 100% free for all participants. Just apply and get your ticket!

4. What if I don't have any experience?

Have no fear! Hackathons are for you to learn and in fact, it is one of the best ways to do so. On the first day of the HMBCN, we will also facilitate team building so no one gets left out! We'll also have a workshop to prepare you for the challenges. And when you run into any problems or questions, mentors will be happy to help you out. By the end of HMBCN, you will have new skills, friends, and a Project!

5. What should I bring?

All food will be provided at the event so don't worry about that!

Here is a list of what you should definitely have:

• ID: You’ll need this to check in to the event.

• Laptop: Desktops aren’t great as travel companions.

• Chargers (laptop, phone, etc.)

• Headphones: With so many hackers in one building, it can get a bit loud, so bring headphones if you want to get some quiet time.
