The first LEEPS oTree Hackathon 2017 @ WZB took place at the Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin für Sozialforschung (WZB), October 26-29, 2017.

For the oTree hackathon participants gathered in small groups around a project idea. They drew on the expertise of facilitators including James Pettit (Academia.edu software engineer formerly at LEEPS lab and Google) and Morgan Grant (LEEPS lab manager). At the end of the hackathon the groups presented their work, and prizes (of modest monetary value but great bragging rights) had been awarded.

This four day event was a joint effort of the LEEPS lab and WZB, organized by Dan Friedman, Johannes Leutgeb, and James Pettit. The event was supported by the Collaborative Research Center Transregio “Rationality and Competition” CRC TRR 190.
