The Silver Economy Forum, organized by Ameri Communications in collaboration with Dedalus Italia and the University of Genoa, proposes Silver #Life Hackathon, an initiative aimed at young talents that aims to develop innovative solutions to address the challenges related to the active aging of the population: master's students from any degree program at the University of Genoa are invited to develop a software prototype designed to support, inform and involve elderly people living in the area and their caregivers.

The participation in the hackathon involves the issuance of a certificate for the recognition of educational credits.

A curricular internship at the Dedalus company is up for grabs.
