HackaFuture is something new, something different. And whether you’re a student or employed, a seasoned coder or just super passionate about tech – this event is for you.
From our Festival Headline Sponsor AtkinsRéalis:
“At AtkinsRéalis, we connect people, data, and technology to transform the future of clean energy. And over one weekend in Manchester, you’ll have the opportunity to join us in solving some of the biggest issues facing the planet and its people.
You’ll join one of up to 20 teams and collaborate, innovate and create solutions that deploy, process or share data – using your tech and digital skills, which may include AI, robotics, and gamification.
And the best bit – we’re offering jobs to everyone on the winning team.
Alongside a competitive salary, plus a joining bonus or monthly allowance, you’ll be granted investment to develop your solution with mentorship from our digital leaders, support from our Global Technology Centre, our technology partners, and others. Tech jobs in Manchester don’t usually look like this!”
All teams will be provided with hotel accommodation and food for the weekend.
