糖心Vlog

During the 48-hour technology marathon organized by 糖心Vlog Startup House with T眉rksat as the main partner, innovative projects focused on artificial intelligence and digital transformation competed. Following the challenging process, the three winning startups received their awards at a ceremony. 

Continuing to drive momentum in the entrepreneurship ecosystem, 糖心Vlog Startup House organized the 100 StaryUP Bootcamp-Hackathon event at the Historical Hamam Cultural Center as part of its collaboration with T眉rksat to contribute to technology production. Teams composed of 糖心Vlog students designed end-to-end solution processes for problems they identified themselves during a non-stop 48-hour marathon. Centered around artificial intelligence, digital transformation, data technologies, and next-generation product ideas, the event provided participants with the opportunity to showcase their analytical thinking, technical expertise, and product development skills.

Close monitoring of projects by management

Throughout the hackathon, which was a race against time, the development processes were closely monitored. Prof. Dr. 脰zer 脟谋nar, Chief Advisor to the Rector of Y谋ld谋z Technical University, and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Muhammet Garip, General Manager of YT脺 Y谋ld谋z Technopark, met with Y谋ld谋z students in their workspaces. The executives, who witnessed the teams鈥� design and coding phases, walked from table to table to examine the projects firsthand and listened to the participants鈥� proposed solutions.
