Back by popular demand is the Qlik Hackathon. Teams will be
presented with several challenges involving MedAir,
an international humanitarian aid agency providing help for
populations affected by natural disasters or conflict and a Qlik "Change
Our World" grant recipient and partner. Developers must use
web skills, data, and Qlik Sense to achieve new insights and
visualizations that best address the challenge. Every Hackathon
participant will have access to Qlik
Branch, a collaborative workspace and open exchange, and
support from internal Qlik experts moderating the event.

magicians that are ready to push the boundaries on a user adoption
business scenario. Each team will be provided with a scenario, clear
requirements, and the challenge to create the ultimate self-service
data visualization and discovery application app - all within the
