i.mobilothon 4.0

The 4th edition of i.mobilothon is here. The vision behind i.mobilothon (VWITS’ very own hackathon) has always been to fuel innovation and build product ideas that add concrete value to the Volkswagen Group. In its 4th edition, we would like to bring the i.mobilothon with its four themes right up to your working desk!

You are invited to share with us a business use case, a problem statement, or a pain area if you will. Tell us some details and try to pinpoint the problem. We will choose some of the most crucial and scalable business use cases as our hackathon teams. We are inviting YOU, all the brilliant and creative nerds and code-freaks to show your spark!

Good luck and have fun building your solution.
