I had never been to a hackathon before, and a picture of a chaotic, high-pressure, and fiercely competitive atmosphere came to mind. So, when I volunteered to help organise Hack’n’Lead, I knew it was a women-friendly and different hackathon. Still, I anticipated some tension and stress, but to my surprise, I encountered none. To the point that I got myself asking my colleagues: “Is this really what a hackathon is like?’
To show you what the atmosphere of the event was like, I shared a few snapshots of Hack’n’Lead in the video below.

Follow women++ on LinkedIn and keep an eye on their upcoming initiatives to help you, who is transitioning or starting into tech, boost your career. And who knows, next year, you might be one of the lucky participants in the unique, women-friendly, diverse and inclusive Hack’n’Lead.
In my next blog post, I’ll be chatting with a recruiter who knows the Swiss job scene well, diving into what diversity and inclusion really mean in the hiring process. Watch out for it!
