Love meets Tech: The hackathon to help you to fall in love and to stay in love! #wehacklove
Welcome to Munich: the capital of singles from Germany. Or was it Berlin or Hamburg?
#ForeverAlone – In Munich it seems particularly difficult to meet new people, not to mention a partner. This is not only sad, but can also be dangerous, as John Cacioppo describes in his TED Talk “The lethality of loneliness”.
Not only is this hackathon about dating, but also about couples. About 50% of marriage end up in a divorce. Non-monogamous relationships are on the rise, and couples are exploring their sexuality with more freedom than ever. Yet very little focus is given to relationships in the tech world.
We want to challenge the status quo! This is why Cook And Code and Stylight are partnering to organize Munich's first LOVE HACKATHON.
Beginners are, of course, welcome! Cook and Code in association with Stylight will provide special workshops to teach the basics you need during the hackathon.
Stylight will provide a library of hardware devices: sensors, actuators, boards…
Therefore: All you need is love! (And… technology?)
