I am very fortunate in my role to work with the brightest and best people and organizations across the world. Cognizant really shines in this space. Working together through our partnership, we are inspiring hundreds of Developers to build the next generation of solutions on the ServiceNow Platform. In early November we are bringing together almost 1000 people for 9 hours of inspired coding and design.
This is the 2nd time we have done this and based on the success of the first event, this one looks to be bigger than before. With an anticipated 250 teams, across 5 locations, we expect to see some remarkable efforts. The teams will be building on the latest and greatest ServiceNow release ever, Istanbul!
Attendees are invited across all lines of business, not just IT. We expect to see folks from Healthcare, Manufacturing, Life Sciences, Media & Entertainment, Education, Energy & Utilities to name but a few. Of course, our friends in IT will not rest or lay down, the challenge is on and there are some seriously good prizes up for grabs.
Watch this space for more updates, as we have another 2 events this year as part of the #HackNow solution. Sydney and London are up next, which are both public events, open to anybody who wants to come and learn, network and compete.
We will promoting the event heavily across all social channels so keep an eye out on Twitter and others for #HackNow, #Cognizant, #Createathon16, #IAmACreator and make sure you follow @servicenow, @Cognizant, and of course yours truly! (@chris_pope_now)
A massive thanks to the team for getting us this far, the work is only just beginning and when the timer starts on the morning of November the 5th, its #GameOn.
