Hack VS The text in French follows. Valais's next generation reinvents the region, in 24 hours. The first hackathon embedded inside a major public event in Switzerland. Over one weekend, at the heart of the Foire du Valais, ~50 participants from top Swiss schools form mixed teams and tackle concrete problems set by Valais companies, next to 20,000 visitors. Sunday afternoon, the top teams pitch their solution on stage. In front of the crowd and in front of a jury of investors, founders and professionals. 🎯 THE CHALLENGES Valais companies will bring a concrete, unsolved problem — data, technology, systems, processes, AI, that can be attacked in 24 hours, using open data or a simplified dataset.

In 24 hours, you tackle a real problem no one has solved yet. You build under pressure, with people you'd never have met in class, using what you've got. You pitch in front of an audience and decision-makers. And you walk away with something concrete in your hands — and visibility with recruiters who are watching. And here's what's included: 📍 Location: Foire du Valais, Martigny (CERM) 🎟 Spots are limited. Register before October 2nd. Organized with Foire du Valais and HES-SO Valais-Wallis. Questions?
