Hack2Build - Beyond a Hackathon
Build Sustainability Solution using SAP Business Technology Platform

December 12 – 16, 2022, Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC)

 

Join our next Hack2Build Build Sustainability Solution using SAP Business Technology Platform, a virtual hackathon event held on December 12 – 16, 2022. The event will be focused on leveraging SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) to address use cases related to the Sustainability agenda.

Building a sustainable world. Together.

 

SAP’s purpose is to help the world run better and improve people’s lives with sustainability at the core. SAP aspires to a world with zero emissions, zero waste, and zero inequality. With SAP’s portfolio of Sustainability solutions, we want to help our customers become more sustainable. In chasing the Zero journey, our ecosystem of partners play a key element in our strategy. SAP is committed to collaborate and co-innovate with our diverse ecosystem of partners to help businesses embed operational, experiential, and financial data and insights to drive sustainability at scale.

 

To bring outside-in perspectives to enhance and drive sustainability at scale, we launch this Hack2Build Sustainability initiative edition in LAC. Hack2Build is a short and intense format to complete a working prototype in less than 7 days. In this initiative, the partners are called to ideate and build on three key pillars of sustainability: Zero emission, Zero Waste & Zero Inequality using SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).

 

Customer interest in the topic of Sustainability is already strong and continues to grow. How can your company leverage the SAP Business Technology Platform and the SAP portfolio to support customer requirements in this area?

Hack2Build – What’s to come?

 

The Hack2Build event offers a unique opportunity for SAP Partners to address current business challenges by building a solution prototype with the support of SAP. Click here to know more about Hack2Build. In order to participate, simply submit your solution idea to us! A team of SAP experts will then evaluate the technical feasibility and economic viability of your proposal. Once qualified you will be invited to register your team of participating experts.

 

During the event, SAP experts will assist your team with technical support. On the final day, your team will present the business plan and solution architecture, and demonstrate the prototype to a panel of judges.

 

Based on the prototype you delivered we hope that you will then move towards developing the full solution. This build phase will be facilitated by the SAP Co-innovation Lab to help you complete the development and provide you with access to the relevant go-to-market teams at SAP.
