With Volvo Trucks Belux, we are organizing our first Volvo Trucks Hackathon Challenge. During this 32h during event, we will let you having a deeper look on our data via our Volvo Trucks API. And give you the opportunity to build your own connected solution. The purpose is to develop a proof of concept based on our trucks data that can help transporters to have a better view on their costs during a certain transport. This can be done by focusing on safety, better mobility, fuel consumption, road tax, last mile delivery, time efficiency,... Innovation and creativity are the key words for this event. Data providers like Google Maps, Here Maps, the Belgian cities are already up to enrich our data. Are you up to boost your career, by showing your innovative ideas to an international jury of experts ? Don’t hesitate to register on our website.
