Benefits of competing in the AVEVA Partner Games

Why compete?

The AVEVA Partner Games hackathon helps energize teams via a thought-provoking challenge that inspires exciting and original solutions.

But it's not just a contest. Participants bring valuable experiences back to their company, including:

Skills

Teams strengthen their solutioning skills and gain deeper product knowledge.

Use this as a risk-free, cost-effective way to give teams hands-on experience with the AVEVA portfolio for developing new solutions to offer customers

It was definitely a chance for us to use some skills that we don’t normally have the chance to use in the workplace, and to build on what we were doing at University. It was really good to get in and use other products that are different to what we usually use.

Roddy Mason, ITI Group

It’s been an honour for us really to be mentored by such people you know, we’ve learned a lot from them, there are a lot of things that we discovered.

Andy Evans Sandoval, Calibr8 Systems

It was an opportunity to collaborate with the AVEVA team and build upon CONNECT.

Terri Lewis, CereBulb

I’m so glad that we got the opportunity to play with CONNECT, I hadn’t really used it before this and it was really great to be with other integrators and see what their solutions were and what they could come up with.

Beth Katz, Casne Engineering

The Partner Games does a lot in accelerating our roadmap, we prepared this demo for last year, but we had in the roadmap for 2025 to connect our demo to CONNECT. Participating in the Partner Games really accelerated it, because we had to do it, we had to do it now!

Elisa Costa, Autoware
