The Idea Hackathon
The Travel Industry needs the next big ideas now. Let’s conceive them with the brightest minds!
Let’s impress on an empty canvas the ideas which will shape the travel industry in the years to come, with the backdrop of the Corbara lake, filled in with the waters which downstream reach Rome.
THE IDEAS HACKATHON PROGRAM
Imagine this: You’re surrounded by the brightest minds in travel tech.
Instead of passively watching presentations, you’re actively creating the next big ideas that will transform our industry, together.
No coding skills required – just your expertise and creativity!
Every one at the conference is pre-registered for the Hackhathon!
Pre-Conference
- We’ll match you with a dream team based on your profile.

Day 1: Let the Innovation Begin
- Medieval dinner:
You’ve been assigned a Team. Stick with it or change it – the choice is yours! Got a groundbreaking new idea? Even better! Go and create a new team around it. - Idea Development: morning kick off. Each Team will have a banner where others can see the idea and maybe join.
Meet your team mates, present yourself and get to work! - The Grand Finale: Present your vision in a 3-minute pitch, followed by 7 minutes of Q&A. No slides, just one of you speaking.
The AI Twist
Ever wondered how AI stacks up against human creativity?
We’re putting it to the test!
An AI-only team will be part of the competition.
It’s a unique chance to explore the future of innovation and get your hands (and possibly your soul) dirty with AI.
If the last time you played with it was when ChatGPT came out, get ready to be blown away.
If you are deep into into already, help your
teammates leverage it.
Invest in Brilliance

You will also be an investor in the best ideas.]
- You’ll receive physical game “Florins” – our special currency for the event (don’t tell anyone, it’s actually old Italian Liras)
- Invest in ideas that excite you, even during dinner.
- Give them Florins and get physical Bragging Rights shares in exchange.
- The more Florins an idea attracts, the higher its “valuation” climbs.
Seeing the space from the perspective of the investor will help you get a more 360 degrees vision.
Your Stake in the Future

- Every investment earns you “Bragging Rights” in paper – think of it as your claim to fame.
- We’ll immortalize your foresight with NFTs, so you can prove you were there when the next big thing was born.
