On the day, you chase extension leads instead of hosting

Tell us about your hackathon (date, number of teams, duration) and receive an all-inclusive proposal in less than 24h.
Or come and visit one of our venues: it is even more telling.
A hackathon alternates team work and group moments: kick-off, check-ins, final pitches, prize-giving. The venue needs pods with a screen and power, breakout rooms and a plenary where you can switch formats in a few minutes.
Hundreds of devices connected at once: fibre Wi-Fi and on-site technical support stop anyone losing an hour to a network issue. Check the number of power sockets per workstation before the day too.
Natural light, lounge corners and regular breaks make the difference on an intensive format. For a few minutes in the open air, Comet Étoile and Comet Ternes have rooftops, Comet Place des Victoires a terrace, Comet Levallois and Comet Arboretum gardens.
Breakfast, breaks, lunch and dinner are crafted by Chef Vakhtang Meliava, with nearly 70% French produce. On a long format, meals follow your schedule, not the other way round.
Our venues are a few minutes from the metro in Paris, Brussels and Madrid: jury, mentors, students and external partners arrive easily, and our welcome team guides them on the day.
