Technology meets crisis

Shape the communications of tomorrow.

Three days of innovation, team spirit and technology: The Hackathon@PMRExpo powered by Corevas was entering the next round! From 25 to 27 November 2025, creative minds came together again at PMRExpo to rethink communication in crisis situations.
In a 48-hour design and coding marathon, interdisciplinary teams developed new solutions - AI-supported, practical and of high social relevance. The aim was to improve crisis management, support decision-taking processes and increase the effectiveness of the communications in critical situations.

The focus was on three challenges:

  • Emergency diagnostics without an app - using smart devices to save lives
  • When images are deceptive - authenticity as the basis for secure communication
  • When every second counts - AI as a partner for better decisions

What the teams were offered:

  • Cash prizes for the best ideas
  • Free meals and almost free hotel accommodation
  • Access to PMRExpo and award ceremony attended by trade audience
  • Top mentoring by experts and experienced coaches
  • Early access to the community via Slack - networking and team building 4 weeks before
  • Visibility among companies & potential employers
  • Plenty of networking, new perspectives & fun
