Klaip\u0117da once again invited to create advanced solutions for the port of today and the future. The hackathon \u201cPortathon 2022\u201d organised for the 4th time brought together the teams from business companies, innovators and start-ups from Lithuania and abroad.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The hybrid event took place on the 30 September – 2 October at\u00a0Klaipeda Science and Technology Park (Lithuania) and on virtual platform. Hackathon participants traditionally dedicated 48 hours to generating solutions.<\/p>\n

Over 100 participants tested their powers in the two-day technological solution generation marathon. Teams actively addressed challenges presented by Klaipe\u0307da ID and Klaipe\u0307dos miesto savivaldybe\u0307 which called for solutions to monitoring, data collection and analysis of the port city street cleaning process, as well as making proposals covering digitalized sewage from development of a level monitoring system to help prevent possible incidents of lagoon pollution.<\/p>\n

After the final presentations, the teams “VTDK maketistai-paketistai” from Vilnius College of Technology and Design , “BalticG&TA” from the Klaipeda Baltic Gymnasium, “EcoKlaipPort” from Klaipeda State University of Applied Sciences and Klaipeda University, and “Kiaul\u0117s nugara” from Tech enthusiasts, were recognized as the best ones and distributed a prize fund aiming for 4000 EUR.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We are proud of our students Aissa and Raraa who participated in this competition as \u201eEcoKlaipPort\u201c international team and won 1000 EUR prize. They chose the challenge presented by Klaip\u0117da Port. The team has provided a solution of a smart synchronized traffic regulation system that would enable to evaluate city transport and freight flows that are carried by ships, railways and trucks and help regulate them so that smooth transport movement is ensured by avoiding congestion, unforeseen heavy transport parking and increased pollution.<\/p>\n

\u201e The Portathonas recalls solving Klaipeda city\u2019s problems, after we fell in love with \u00a0this city, we felt that\u2019s our problems too. We attended it to make Klaipeda a better place to live\u201c, Raraa, Electrical and automation engineering student, shares their decision to participate in the competition. \u201ePortathonas is a very conducive place for networking, we met a lot of people, gained a huge experience just in 72 hours. This is one of the most important things to succeed on my career. The way that mentors showed their interest in our idea and how they supported us was incredible\u201c.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201e We met so many people in the sectors that we study, they definitely helped us develop ourselves a lot through this weekend. And in these competitions, everybody wins, you get to learn so much and develop yourself to an extend where the limits are only yours\u201c, added Aissa, student of Informatics study programme.<\/p>\n
