AEC Hackathon @
NAVIGATING THE TRIPLE TRANSITION
SHAPING THE FUTURE TO FACE DIGITAL, GREEN, AND SOCIAL TRANSITIONS.
The AEC Hackathon @ BLOXHUB 2024 were devoted to solving the some of the BIG challenges of our generation: How can the AEC industries help us solve climate and biodiversity issues while ensuring a fair and just transition – through tech?
On 1 – 3 March 2024, 100+ engineers, architects, computer scientists, BIM-developers, cool nerds, tech experts, design thinkers, anthropologists and other great minds would rethink traditional patterns and hack their way into solutions that were relevant for the green and social transition.
Challenges included ‘deep dives’ within:
- How to design CO2 positive buildings
- How to measure dynamic nature-based relationships in cities
- How to design inclusive cities through citizen engagement
… all through tech.
What is AEC Hackathon?
AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) Hackathon is an organization that, since its origin in 2013, has held events in numerous locations; e.g. Berlin, Shanghai, and Paris. It was created to give those designing, building, and maintaining our built environment the opportunity to collaborate with cutting-edge technologies and its developers and designers. Over the course of three days, teams compete against each other while trying to find solutions for the problems they face in their everyday work.
It has quickly become a community of innovators that includes all elements of the built environment, not just AEC.
