We want to challenge the creative community on social and economic issues that really matter, like digitalization, urbanization, climate change and sustainability. How do these global trends affect our daily lives and what challenges brings this to our city? The objective of the 20Creathon programme is to use available data, knowledge and talent to develop solutions for these social issues.

Anyone can participate in a creathon challenge: students and professionals, citizens and entrepreneurs. The only requirement is that you have to be passionate about the theme of the challenge and you have to enjoy collaborating with other people. A mix of fields, cultures and skills will result in beautiful new insights and solutions.

The strength of a creathon is the combination of the right question, people with varied backgrounds, a proven concept, a time constraint and a lot of energy and enthusiasm. In 24 to 48 hours teams develop solutions for social issues using datasets and expert input. The unique method of the creathon triggers innovative thinking. Try it yourself.

Teams develop the most brilliant ideas during a creathon. The expert jury determines the winners. They will not only go home with the prize, but also get support to further develop their idea into a concrete product or service. On top of that, a creathon gives all of the participants a lot of inspiration, energy and a lifetime experience!
