CODE 1

About the Event CODE 1 is a high-energy innovation hackathon inspired by the speed, strategy, and technological excellence of Formula 1. Just like an F1 race where teams push engineering and performance limits, CODE 1 challenges participants to build impactful tech solutions under time pressure. Organized by Collazon, this hackathon brings together developers, designers, and innovators to collaborate, solve real-world problems, and compete in a fast-paced environment. Participants will work in teams to design and develop innovative solutions and present their projects to a panel of judges.
