Fun, tech and the Aptos community in Amsterdam: a hackathon with impact!
With the mission to create a large, stimulating event, Aptos called on our knowledge of the Dutch events market. In addition to hackathon sessions, networking was key, but in a setting where relaxation and fun also played an important role. The event had to feel not only successful for the participants, but also seamlessly aligned with Aptos’ international standards.
The challenge
The biggest challenge? Integrating Aptos’ global expectations into a setup that fit the European market. Together with Aptos’ event team, we worked for months to create a program that reflected their brand identity and the innovative nature of the organization, from technical setups to local catering. Thanks to our extensive network, we were able to fill in every detail according to their wishes and create a cool and interactive environment.
Added value
Our added value was in our in-depth knowledge of the Dutch market and our broad network, which we have built over 20 years. From the right technology to authentic catering and entertainment, we knew exactly where and how to fulfill the components from Aptos’ wish list, allowing them to fully focus on their hackathon goals.
The collaboration
The collaboration was largely remote, with a team spread across multiple time zones. We only met on the second day of construction, but thanks to the intensive cooperation beforehand, it felt like we had been partners for years. The reactions spoke volumes: both participants and the Aptos team appreciated the smooth organization and impact of the event.
The result
The result? A hackathon with impact. The venue, spacious and fully equipped, impressed all attendees and provided opportunities for technological deepening, meetings and relaxation. Guests enjoyed authentic Amsterdam specialties, such as local beers and custom Aptos syrup waffles, while a DJ from the Aptos community celebrated the final evening. This hackathon not only attracted developers and tech junkies, but also encouraged new collaborations among participants!
