Pi Day Hackathon/Competition with the Folks at Intel.

This weekend, I was the lead photographer at a private event for the Intel corporation. Hosted by Greentown Labs and organized by the lads & lasses at BeMyApp, this two day event brought together some of the best and most bright of the STEM industries to participate in a Hackathon.

In the two days that I was there to document the teams as they worked their way into building websites, I fell…

Hope you are doing well. 

If you are available,especially if you are in the Bay Area (Northern California), I wanted to personally invite you to my next DataHack on July 12-13 at nestGSV. There's $30,000 in cash prizes and the chance to win a 3 month incubation program. It's going to be a lot of fun!

I have talked about hackathons, accelerators and incubators in previous posts and have showcased some fantastic companies out there like the team behind Startup Weekend. I did mention that there is a company very close to our hearts at Simplib and that is the wonderful guys at Bemyapp. Youri, Lucie and Alex have all loved their experiences at the Bemyapp events and have even bagged an awesome prize at one of the events. 

So lets talk about their website. From the very first second on their site you get the impression that this is a global organization with a huge network. I love the strapline "Developers, there is always a place for you" because this hints at the sea of talent that these guys have as part of their network. If you scroll down you will see that there are loads of events happening around the world in countries like the USA, UK, Spain, Italy, Germany and France which is fantastic. The Bemyapp brand does not just run hackathons and actually runs a load of really cool meetups, online challenges, workshops and much more. If you are looking for an event that promotes or showcases a specific coding language then you are also in luck. With the website you can filter through events by selecting tags such as CSS, Javascript and "googleglass". 

Going back to my previous point about the Simplib teams' involvement with Bemyapp it was awesome for the team to collaborate with other techies and build a wicked app. The guys got together at the Bemyapp NFC event in Paris and build a great team around their app. After a lot of hard work over the weekend it was amazing for the team to be recognised for their efforts and win the event! Out of this weekend a cool app called "Curioucity" was born which basically helps people to discover the city around them using NFC technology. You can physically interact with the area around you using the app and it is a great opportunity for different companies and brands to get involved. The name was changed to NFCity shortly after and is now undergoing some really cool developments and changes. 

Bemyapp are doing lots of different things and the agency arm of the business has proved to be incredibly powerful. Bemyapp have over 15,000 developers as part of their global network and have run over 250 events which is massive! They have an impressive client list with blue chips such as Intel, Samsung, Microsoft, Google, Adobe, RedBull and much more.
