Hackathon for Ladies Bremen 2023

The hack4ladies is a women-only hackathon and is organized by the Lenze Group (Lenze Digital, encoway and logicline). From May 05 to 07, girls and young women interested in IT will meet, form teams and work on developing prototypes and concepts within 48 hours.

No matter if you like to develop concepts, design or program - if you are interested in IT, the #hack4ladies is just right for you. Develop ideas, build, play, hack, share, learn and have fun!

But why go through all this? Well, at around 17%, the proportion of women in the IT industry in Germany is very low. To make IT careers more attractive, you as a prospective or already successful female IT professional can provide creative and exciting implementation ideas for products, apps and services at Hack4Ladies.

We welcome (aspiring) female software developers, computer scientists, graphic designers, marketing managers, entrepreneurs, business developers, UX developers but also students, pupils and professionals who want to work together on technical solutions for the world of tomorrow.

It's not about creating finished products, but sharing your ideas with other women, building inspiring hacks, learning from our mentors and just having fun. Our goal at #hack4ladies is to bring creative minds and different skill sets together.

We want to see you come up with new ideas and how the fun of playing with technology translates into your presentations and pitches at the end of the hackathon. So if you're up for the challenge, bring your skills to the event and work on something cool.

Technical knowledge or deep programming skills are not mandatory! We are looking forward to everyone - from beginners to advanced and experts

Location + Catering

Experience the new NEOS building in the Technology Park in Bremen with us. Here you have the opportunity to develop and implement your ideas. During the whole event you will receive a nutritious breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as a place to sleep.

Prize money for the best pitches and solutions

3D printers, Raspberry PI, Beacons, Kinect and much more will be free to use for the development of your prototypes. You will have the opportunity to demonstrate your skills in the areas of mobile, cloud and IoT to the audience and the jury and win attractive prizes.

Networking and lots of fun!

We're not just about creativity and challenges. Hack4Ladies also serves as an event to bring together women from different fields of activity and to work together on problems. An interesting EXCHANGE and NETWORKING is written in capital letters.

Places to stay

You have the opportunity to stay overnight with us at the Digital Hub Industry. This way you can get to know each other even better and develop your ideas further. If you choose to do so, you only need to bring a sleeping bag and an air mattress, hygiene measures and everything else will be taken care of.

You can also sleep at your home or at a friend's house. If you are coming from further away and are still looking for a place to stay, but would rather sleep in a hotel or similar, you can of course also find a room for the weekend. The Digital Hub Industry is also easy to reach by public transport.

What participants say about our previous hackathons

The atmosphere at hack4ladies, the exchange of information among the participants and the undisturbed work phases were great!

The 'Presentation Space' was very professionally done. Well organised. I'll be back next time!

Almost everything! Especially the atmosphere and the 'together-culture'.

I really enjoyed a hackaton only with women and I would do it again 🙂

It was a lot of fun. It was my first hackathon for women, but definitely not the last!!! See you again next year!

Thank you very much for your efforts and the great event. It was great fun. I'll be back next time.
