SRG SSR Hackdays

SRG’s own «Hackathon» is designed to develop ideas, prototypes and projects in the digital realm and, if possible, to implement them in an Enterprise Unit.  

SRG SSR Hackdays

Hundreds of participants have contributed their expertise and enthusiasm to the Hackdays in recent years, helping to shape product developments and the collaborative culture within SRG and its enterprise units RSI, RTR, RTS, SRF and swissinfo.ch. 

Within 24 hours, software and hardware engineers, designers, journalists and other interested disciplines work on new products and approaches. Without any guidelines from the organizer, the participants throw themselves into the floods of feasibility and sometimes work all night long. The most important things needed for such hackdays are coffee, electricity, internet connection and access to data.
