Maurits van der Sluis, COO of RAI Amsterdam, said: “The Event Industry Hackathon is designed to encourage people to think outside the box and take this fine industry to a higher level.
“The solutions will be shared and returned to the event sector, underlining the RAI’s role as a platform for knowledge, contacts and innovation.”
The event will provide food and drink from RAI’s Basement Chefs, as well as inspirational speakers and entertainment. It will also give a wide range of people within the events sector a chance to network.
