herHACK 20.22
a female led hackathon
#herHACK is the largest female-led hackathon in Switzerland. The promotion of women in technical professions is more relevant than ever in view of the increasing shortage of skilled workers. With a share of around 80 percent, men dominate the tech industry. This makes it all the more difficult for women and other underrepresented groups to gain a foothold in this field. That's why #herHACK took place again this year with nearly 100 participants.
2022 WINNING TEAM
First place was awarded to the "Greender" project. This application aims to help users get involved, take action and have a positive impact on the environment while having fun. To do this, they can swipe left and right, just like on a dating app. It's not people who are displayed, but sustainable projects they can participate in. In doing so, they collect points with which they can make sustainable purchases in the corresponding online shop.
