Hackathons in the enterprise: Planning innovation initiatives that pay off
If you’re in a team that’s working on existing digital products, you understand the struggle of finding time to dream up and develop new features – even when you know this is what keeps you ahead.

Why I’m going to the Ada Lovelace Festival (and you should, too!)
Ada Lovelace was a badass. She wrote one of the first computer programs when almost no women worked in tech — in 1842, to be precise.

This year’s event focuses on the topic of ownership. Speakers from leading enterprises — such as Volkswagen, Accenture and SAP — will engage with artists, activists and government officials to discuss who gets to own the future of the digital world, and how more people can be involved. I’m thrilled to attend this year. Here are a few reasons why.
