Discover coding hackathon venues in Chicago
Hackathons are sweeping the nation as an exciting way to showcase the coding expertise of a team. Data scientists, software engineers, and other experts come together to design new programs or applications in a set timeframe. Hackathons are also networking opportunities for computer experts to swap knowledge and contact information with the industry's brightest minds. Not to mention a lot of fun and an opportunity for competition, socializing, and prizes.
Chicago is one of the nation's best connected and event-rich cities. Venues offer space for all kinds of events, including coding hackathons. So what should we be looking for when choosing an innovative hackathon space in Chicago?
The best places to have a hackathon in Chicago
Hackathon venues should offer individual or team desk space, fast internet speeds, and a floor plan that encourages mingling to better share ideas. Rather than cubicles a hackathon space could feature hot desks, as in a coworking space. Shared desks or small couches, as in a coffee shop, are also ideal since you can quickly speak to a hackathon member when needed.
Blazing connection speeds are also important. Fiber connected venues are going to be a priority so members can swap media and information in an instant. Amenities like printers, bathrooms, microwaves, and water fountains are also helpful. As well as proximity to places to eat. Downtown hackathon venues get the nod from us since they check every one of these metrics. After a long bout of coding, what could be better than walking a few blocks to enjoy global fine dining, cocktails at a rooftop lounge, or a quiet evening at your favorite coffee shop?
State-of-the-art hackathon venues in Chicago
Technology is central to a hackathon so fast connectivity and other amenities are critical. We recommend looking into coworking spaces, university computer labs, library conference rooms, and other tech-centric venues. These spaces prioritize internet speeds, collaborative floor plans, and easy access to the general public. Hackathons can also be held in more open floor plans, including lofts and warehouses. You may have to check internet speeds and connectivity in such a space, however, since they aren't often designed with the needs of computer engineers in mind.
That said, few spaces are as comfortable or as flexible in design style as an urban warehouse. It offers space for hundreds to sit in at a rate comparable to a downtown office wing, and room for posters, spacious tables, and easy outdoor parking. Regardless of the scale of your hackathon, Chicago is one of the best places in the nation to hold one!
