On May 16, 2023, 137 developers, admins, analysts, architects, and creators formed 43 teams to participate in the CreatorCon Hackathon at Knowledge 2023!

One of the challenges of any endurance event where we ask people to stay for 8 hours or more is attrition. This year, we had 31 teams complete the Hackathon! 72% of all teams sticking it through to the end is amazing news, especially compared to our last in-person Hackathon in 2019 that had only 52% completion and even compared to our digital Hackathons in 2020 and 2021 that only had about 60% completion.

We hope everyone has been enjoying the Knowledge Digital Experience this year. The Hackathon winners were just announced via the video session on the knowledge experience platform. The corporate ServiceNow Blog also has a featured post outlining the winners! The Hackathon team and I had a fantastic weekend helping answer questions in zoom Guru help hours all through the 24 hours! When not helping directly, we were live streaming, and watching live streams.

We hope everyone has been enjoying the Knowledge Digital Experience this year. It has been a few weeks since we aired the CreatorCon 2020 Hackathon finals announcing the finalists and winner, and we wanted to recognize some of the teams that didn’t make the finals, but got close. You can find those in the Honorable Mentions section below and those teams will be receiving some ServiceNow swag. We have also included links to the five-minute pitch videos submitted by many of the teams that competed.

Congratulations to Team Volteoans! Yesterday we showed the finals of the CreatorCon Hackathon and announced that Team Volteoans won with their app Clinical Care Management (EMR). The hackathon team would like to thank everyone for participating in the weekend-long hackathon. We had over 220 people across 50 teams submit applications by the end of the weekend and had some really impressive and innovative apps submitted. Choosing the five category winners and the grand prize winner was very difficult for our judging teams.

CreatorCon 2020 Virtual Hackathon Streaming Doing a virtual hackathon means that more people across the world can participate, which we’re really excited about. The downside is that we’re not all in a room together. While teams will be collaborating internally with each other and we have the hackathon community forum, we wanted to do something else to create some community and camaraderie. We’re excited to announce that in addition to the special Hackathon version of Live Coding Happy Hour on Friday, May 1 at 4 PM EDT, we’re going to be doing two more Livestream Hackathon Shows over the weekend streaming live on YouTube and Twitch.
