Programme

The Usability Hackathon 2025 will take place in the coworking spaces at lisezwei. These spaces will be yours exclusively for the 48 hour duration of the hackathon. So, you can stay the entire time – and work work work or take a nap in the sleeping bag you brought along for yourself.

Of course, you can also go home in between. Just make sure you don't miss the checkpoints that are part of the programme.

Workshop material, food and drinks will be provided for all participants of the hackathon.

Also, there will be mentors to support you. So, you don't have to have specific knowledge to participate.
