OUR CO-CREATION PROCESS

+++

This bootcamp is a special event concept of Industry meets Makers, which in essence works like an intensive miniature model of the four-month main programme. Industrial companies present "briefings" (= challenges) and invite makers – freelance developers, hobbyists, students, start-ups and SMEs – to work with them on initial solutions within just 4 days. Technology partners, local maker space operators and experts support the teams during the process by providing the necessary infrastructure and in-depth know-how.

CURRENT PROGRAMME PLANNING STATUS

+++

We know that hardly anyone can really participate in a programme of this kind for 4 days at a time and that every concept of life brings with it different requirements and freedom. We have therefore tried to arrange the process according to the hop-on-hop-off principle.

DAY 1

On June 24th we start with a pitching and matchmaking session. In the morning our briefing and technology partners will present their challenges and available tools, components, materials and machines and answer first questions.

Afterwards there will be the opportunity to get to know each other, develop plans and ideas for the coming days and form groups.

DAY 2 + 3

On June 25th and June 26th we will focus fully on the development work.

In the morning and early afternoon we hold bootup and reboot meetings where participants can inform each other about their progress and give each other tips.

During the rest of the time you can work cooperatively around the clock according to your individual feasibility and preferences.

DAY 4

On June 27th the participating IMM teams and briefing partners will present the results achieved during the 4-day bootcamp and the 4-month #IMM2024 development process and give an outlook on how they would like to proceed with the projects afterwards.

Our #IMM2024 bootcamp challenges

+++

This year, we are dividing our challenges between the teams at 2 locations. At the UAS St. Pölten, the participants will work intensively on solutions for the Trivion challenge. At Gemini in Salzburg, the teams will focus on brainstorming for the Mission Green challenge from the Regionalverband Pongau and Lebens.Wert, the Pongau-Tennengau Leader Region.
