FAQS

Why participate in the KNX Hackathon?

Because KNX can help build a more sustainable future. KNX Association is aware that so many of you are helping to reduce energy consumption in buildings using KNX in all sorts of ways, which is why it is launching KNX Hackathon 2023 as an opportunity to prove what a difference using KNX can make. As KNX Association Marketing Team Leader, Casto Cañavate, puts it, “Our long-term vision is to see KNX used everywhere for energy-efficient homes, buildings and cities, but whilst we know KNX can make a big difference in saving energy, we need the figures to back up our claims. There is already a lot of great work going on by individuals and companies in reducing the carbon footprint of buildings, and the KNX Hackathon will help us bring this experience together to produce the hard facts we need to persuade the wider world that KNX is a compelling choice. This is our opportunity to prove that KNX is helping to build a more sustainable future.”

Who can enter?

The competition is open to all comers all over the world. Any individual or team can enter, including students, hobbyists, professionals, scientific members, manufacturers, distributors and non-members.

 

There are a range of challenges to choose from. As long as you can prove how KNX saves energy, your entry will be publicized and you will be in with a chance to be selected as a finalist.

Is it worth entering?

Absolutely! This is a great opportunity to put yourself, your team or your company on the map as an energy-saving champion. KNX Hackathon 2023 offers something for everyone, as every valid submission will be listed and receive a free marketing package for the year. In addition, selected finalists will be in the running to win prize money plus the prestigious ‘KNX Hackathon 2023’ trophy.

 

The effects of KNX Hackathon 2023 will be far-reaching and long-lasting. Not only will it provide our industry with hard evidence that could make all the difference in pitches, proposals, consultations, tenders etc, but it will also provide a platform to share experience, ideas and best practice in terms of energy saving, so that others can benefit from it.
