We are at the start!
On the morning of June 21st 2021, our 3rd Future Tech Bootcamp got underway – broadcast via video conference and live feed from the TV studio at the UAS St. Pölten.
After a short welcome by the main organisers, supporters and event partners, our industry partners presented 12 exciting challenges, which could then be worked on together with them for 4 days. Afterwards, the experts and local maker spaces who helped our teams with their special know-how and infrastructure during the entire co-creation process presented themselves.
Below you can find the recordings from our zoom main stage on day 1 and via these links the original programme overview as well as the presentation of the generated results on day 4. Further impressions from our partner programme as well as our bootcamp sessions and local activities on the days 2 and 3 will follow soon.
