Uniplay's first hackathon went from an idea raised in a meeting to a full event in under a month. We got featured on Luma's explorer page and Women in Tech amplified it further. Applications came in at roughly three times the volume anyone had planned for.

What showed up was a mix of students and people who build games for the fun of it.

We also had amazing partners with us: Lovable, Talentium, ZenRobot and Red Bull. They were a great support and had our back throughout the day.

With us we had an amazing jury: Gabriella Kalteneckar, Senior Project Manager at RISE and Head of Operations for Sweden AI Factory; Linus Blomberg, co-founder of Uniplay; and Evgenii Kondratev, CPO of Talentium.

They announced Yunfei Yu and Patrik Omari as winners with their idea Teamdex.

Teamdex turns meeting your new team into a card-collecting game. A newcomer collects colleagues' cards by having face-to-face conversations with them, picking up how the company is structured and who's responsible for what along the way. HR can follow each newcomer's progress in real time, which makes onboarding easier to guide and support.

We're so happy with everyone who came, and we're already looking forward to the next one.
