Stand a chance to win a place in the 7month
Mercedes-Benz Accelerator program

Backed by automobile giant, Mercedes-Benz, Startup Autobahn Singapore is looking to help Singapore entrepreneurs, students and startups that have innovative tech ideas in the area of sales, after-sales and corporation to transform the automobile industry for our customers.

Mercedes-Benz will be holding a hackathon session to hear from you and how your idea will be able to help Mercedes-Benz to solve their industry challenges. Here's one example:

A. Cars are parked in a disorganised fashion in the carparks of workshop or dealership due to space constraint. Accessing the cars then poses a huge challenge.
B. Car keys in workshop or dealership are placed in a key box, salesman will have to manually search for the correct car keys which takes up time and indicates inefficiency.
C. How can we, in real-time, be able to identify the car location and navigate through the workshop seamlessly?

More challenges will be revealed during the hackathon session. If you are a budding entrepreneur, tech guy or simply have experience in the field of: IoT, Social Media Analytics, Picture Recognition, Artificial Intelligence, BOT, Virtual and/or Augmented Reality with a solution for the above mention industry challenge, WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU.

Simply RSVP for this Hackathon session and present to us your idea! You will be expecting to meet key personnel from Mercedes-Benz, driving this activity.
