The hackathon will take place at Borkum, an island in the North Sea.
{:class="img-responsive" .center-block}
The goal of the hackathon is to get stuff done! This requires a quiet but still inspiring environment. We think an island reflects this very well.
Borkum is partially car-free. There is only one town, which is called like the island, Borkum.
Borkum is served by ferries from Emden, Germany and Eemshaven, the Netherlands. The ferry from Emden takes 2 hours and 15 minutes and from Eemshaven 50 minutes. The harbour and the town of Borkum are connected via a little train.
Detailed information is available at https://www.borkum.de/allgemein/service/anreise/.
The hackathon base will be Jugendherberge Borkum. We will have several breakout rooms for decent hacking and presentations.
We expect that participants stay there and share a room to ease logistics and keep costs low. We will try to subsidize accommodation costs as most as possible. Details will follow.
