Ifohack 2023

I organized ifoHack 2023 - the first hackathon at the ifo Institute and at a German economic research institute ever. More than 80 participants of different backgrounds, ranging from economics, statistics, engineering to computer science and geography from all over Germany (and Brussels) worked tirelessly over a weekend to solve economic problems. They came up with impressive prototypes - check them out!
