Salesforce X iMovo Hackathon 2024
- 29th October, 2024
- Urban Valley Resort & Spa
Salesforce and iMovo invite you to take part in the First Salesforce X iMovo Hackathon on the 29th October 2024.
This event offers a unique chance to a select number of Students and Maltese Businesses to be paired in teams and get exclusive expert training on the Salesforce platform to design and build a solution that can help the business community.
No coding skills are required. On the contrary we will focus on the Salesforce platform “no code” capabilities to emphasise the links between business and technology, and the accessibility for business user profiles.
What is the Hackathon about?
Businesses keen on discovering innovative applications of Salesforce beyond the traditional realms of sales, service, and marketing, and who are willing to dedicate a day to practical, hands-on exploration alongside experts and students, are encouraged to register. Participating in this hackathon offers a unique opportunity to engage with Malta’s emerging talent and cutting-edge innovation.
Students pursuing degrees in Business Studies and/or IT at the University of Malta will be paired with your business to participate and compete for various prizes.
A distinguished jury panel comprising members from Salesforce, iMovo Ltd., the University of Malta, and prominent local businesses will evaluate the projects and select three winning teams:
- Mr. Anthony Farrugia – Visiting Lecturer, Department of Business and Enterprise Management within the Faculty of Economics, Management and Accountancy and Student Coordinator, Department of Education, IT.
- Mr. Stephen Agius – CEO, Identita and Visiting Lecturer, Department of Business and Enterprise Management within the Faculty of Economics, Management and Accountancy.
