Who said the gods of Olympus were done with their adventures? This October they returned! And this time they had AI, ambitious ideas, and 9 teams of modern-day innovators ready to challenge the impossible. Welcome to T1A Hackathon 2.0: Cyprus Odyssey!
"Following the success of our first internal hackathon earlier this year, we decided to take the adventure further," – Oleg Mikhov, the driving force behind hackathon says. "And what better inspiration than Greek mythology, where every great story begins with a challenge?"
The challenge played out across three worlds:
Engineers and non-engineers joined forces, experimenting with AI agents, exchanging expertise, and discovering how far they could push an idea in just 2 days of development.
Many people stepped outside their usual roles, learned new tools and discovered capabilities they hadn't necessarily explored before. And one of the teams even went full theatrical mode, turning their pitch into mini-performance. The grand finale took us to Cyprus, where the projects were presented to colleagues, the audience had its say, and the winners received their well-deserved recognition.
Congratulations to the winning teams: Biedronka AI and The Suitors. And to all participating teams: Polako, Test Team, Malina, Ship Happens, Out Of Scope, AMAteurs, Team [REDACTED]. The gods may have returned to Olympus, but we're already curious about the next adventure.
