In just 24 hours, 10 teams across the US and India worked together to create hacks based on 3 different themes Attention Platform, Technology & Innovation, and Process & Efficiency.Unlike more traditional hackathons, our hacks have cross-departmental participation with team members spanning from operations, sales, product, and engineering. Typically, this inclusiveness gives the hacks a better weg for becoming viable products and solutions.And the actual hacks? The amount of enthusiasm to lead our business forward became clear through not just the technical ingenuity but how every teams presentation tied back to business outcomes specific to 33Across.
