Welcome to the 2025 Infor Community Hackathon!
We’re excited to have you join us on this journey of creativity, collaboration, and innovation.
Whether you're here to solve real-world challenges, learn something new, or simply connect with like-minded individuals, this is the place to be.
Why join?
Joining an Infor hackathon offers you, our customers, a unique opportunity to address real-world challenges by experimenting with solutions in a focused, supportive environment. It enables you to upskill through hands-on experience with our modern technologies like Robotic Process Automation, GenAI, Process Intelligence, AI and Document Processor, while also gaining deeper insights into ERP capabilities.
Hackathons foster valuable networking and community-building with peers, partners, and internal experts, creating a space for knowledge sharing and collaboration. Importantly, customers can influence the product roadmap by sharing pain points and innovation ideas. Recognition, visibility, and a chance to shape future developments further enhance the value of participating.
Here’s what you can expect from the experience and what the customer track is all about:
