Champion users from the 3DEXPERIENCE Construction TRIBE formed 6 teams and spent 24 hours straight creating more than 60 lifelike renderings.

With the help of 83 pizzas, 312 espressos, and 3 coordinators, the hackathon participants explored multiple design options before each team converged on a final project. This was all executed on the cloud using the latest AEC solutions for the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
