Tartu i-Days x Care About IT 2024

Tehnopol, in partnership with Tartu Biotechnology Park and as part of the Tartu i-Days, is organising a hackathon on November 1-2 within the framework of the Care About IT project.

Care about IT looks at the opportunities and challenges in vocational education and training (VET) in the care and IT sectors. By leveraging collective knowledge and innovation, the hackathon aims to create forward-thinking solutions to ensure the future-readiness of education in the care industry.

During the hackathon, teams of 3-6 spend two days guided by experts to develop and validate solutions to real-life health and biotechnology challenges.

Take part in our two-day hackathon and put your problem-solving and teamwork skills to the test!

When? 1-2 November 2024
Where? Alexela Loomelava, Narva mnt 2, Tartu
Participation: Free of charge

You may come up with an idea and pre-formed team, but you may also just bring your passion to learn, and join one of the teams on site!

The winning team of i-Days will attend the Winners’ Event, a final competition that unites students from around Europe.

i-Days x Care About IT 2024 is accessible to all undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as healthcare workers with an interest in healthcare and biotech innovation.
