Hackathons have always been a melting pot of creativity, innovation, and fast-paced problem-solving. They bring together bright minds eager to push the boundaries of technology and transform ideas into real-world solutions. Recently, Penny Kontogeorgou, Managing Partner at ZK Law, had the privilege of participating in a remarkable AI-focused hackathon organized by the Athens Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation (ACEin) | AUEB.
This event was not just about coding and AI development—it was about fostering innovation, collaboration, and mentorship. With AI revolutionizing industries from healthcare and finance to legal tech and beyond, such initiatives provide a crucial platform for future tech leaders to showcase and refine their groundbreaking ideas.
