The Urb-Hackathon was organized in Beirut by e-EcoSolutions and IPT Energy Center (IPTEC), led by the experts from La Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie in Paris and was under the theme: “Data-Urbanism: Reducing City Air Pollution From Transport.”
This event presents a unique opportunity for ambitious professionals, entrepreneurs, & university students to work together in teams challenging each other on solving urban problems in a limited time frame, and in the most technologically advanced and innovative ways.
The Urb-Hackathon drives the participants to form working teams, brainstorm, design, and present solutions that allow cities to function more efficiently, be more responsive to community members and ultimately create better, more equitable and sustainable urban environments for people to live in.
