Data & Culture Hackathon

One of the Chair's flagship training initiatives is the Data & Culture Hackathon: analytical challenges for cultural facilities, an activity designed to foster innovation and collaborative learning through the use of cultural data.

The Hackathon brings together students, researchers, professionals and experts from different disciplines to develop innovative solutions linked to the Territorial Plan for Cultural Facilities (PITEC).

The challenges addressed include:

  • Semi-automated identification of public impacts generated by cultural facilities.
  • Validation, cleaning and prioritisation of records within the PITEC database.
  • Development of intelligent cultural recommendation systems.
  • Advanced cultural intelligence applications for citizens and public administrations.
