On January 22 (Saturday), the final judging committee for "Care Digital Hackathon in Shimonoseki" (*) hosted by the Shimonoseki City Smart City Promotion Council was held at Baiko Gakuin University.
A few students from the university also participated. In addition, students from other universities and young adults are also participating.
Approximately 30 participants gathered at the kick-off event in October were divided into six teams and started with the aim of solving nursing care issues. In order to materialize the ideas shared by each team, we worked on solutions during a three-month period.
At the final judging session, each team formed their own original ideas and proposed them. In addition, the announcement was broadcast live on YouTube.
I think everyone who participated was a very valuable experience. I hope that this experience will make a further leap forward.

※"Hackathon" is a coined word that combines hack and marathon, and is an event that competes for ideas + services.
