More than 200 international hackers from India, the Philippines, Spain, Romania, Benelux, Poland, England, Germany, Costa Rica and Houston (Texas) took part in the first two HACKATHONAMRING® events.

In a 48-hour and a 24-hour programming marathon in February and March 2018, the programmers worked, sometimes without sleep, on solutions for the care of people in acute cardiac arrest.

In this short time, the teams not only developed new codes, but also the first functioning prototype of EmergencyEye®.

These first two events were supported by EIT Health, an initiative of the EU Commission.
