Once again, many thanks to all our partners for enabling the Healthcare Hackathon Bayern in Erlangen as well as these prizes. And, of course, we offer mentoring as well as follow-up support and funding – let’s revolutionize the healthcare sector with your ideas together!
It’s a launchpad for young talents to showcase their skills — and sometimes even land exciting working student roles. My own journey at Siemens Healthineers started at a Hackathon years ago. I’m excited to see more out-of-the-box ideas take shape and to meet the next generation of bright minds!

Top organization, strong minds and exciting topics – for me, the hackathon was a real eye-opener for the ePA and a booster for new ideas!

The Healthcare Hackathon Bayern is one of the fastest engines of innovation in Bavaria. It’s amazing how many impactful ideas come to life in such a short time. Every year, the atmosphere on these three days is great and inspiring: innovation and creativity are in the air.

Project Manager at Medical Valley EMN e. V., Organizer of the 2023 and 2024 Healthcare Hackathon Bayern
The dominant language will be English, as the hackathon is open to everyone and aims to be accessible to as many hackers as possible. Of course, you can also exchange ideas in other languages. However, the pitches of your developed solutions must be in English.
Ideally, your team should include designers, developers and people with medical or healthcare-specific expertise. However, this is not a mandatory requirement for participation in the hackathon.
Participation in the hackathon is on a “one team” basis, i.e. hackers can only work in one team and cannot be members of several teams.
If necessary for the successful completion of the challenge, we reserve the right to expand or reduce the size of the teams before the hackathon begins.
Please bring a laptop, charger, and adapter to the event. All other materials will be provided.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to stay overnight at the event location. If you have a long journey, we will be happy to help you find suitable accommodation. Costs for an overnight stay in Erlangen must be borne by the participants themselves.
Catering is provided on all days of the event. You can expect a varied buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as snacks and drinks for free (all-inclusive). Of course, we also offer a choice of vegan/vegetarian dishes. If you suffer from certain food intolerances, please let the organizer know in good time so that the catering can be adjusted accordingly.
