Hackathon

The goal of the hackathon is to support tourism researchers to form partnerships with the aim of developing and pitching for a paper publication in Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Management (JHTM) under the mentor Professor Marianna Sigala. The format is an intense two-day paper hackathon where teams of researchers will be formed and work towards the development of a study/paper proposal (paper-a-thon), which they will then present to an evaluation panel. During the hackathon, teams will work under the mentorship of prominent tourism scholars and they will receive constructive and valuable feedback for their research proposals. Teams with highly evaluated papers-a-thon will be invited to submit their completed manuscripts for a fast-tracked review process and a possible publication at the JHTM
