What is a MAKEATHON?

A “MAKEATHON” is an innovative educational event in which several teams (including those from different fields of study) create and develop technological prototypes and innovative solutions within a short period of time. The challenges or problems may be set either by the sponsoring companies or by the participating teams themselves.

The name “MAKEATHON” is a combination of “MAKE” and “MARATHON”. It is a special live event where participants spend several days creating, hacking, developing, designing and pitching a software or hardware project they have built from scratch.
