MUNICH - April 24, 2019 - PRLog -- There are about 20 million programmers worldwide, yet most companies are struggling to acquire top tech talent on the open market. On the other hand, most of the developers have a hard time landing their dream job.

{r}ackathon is addressing this problem by launching its innovative coding competition platform so companies can leverage the power of a creative and motivated crowd, post high-prize challenges, drive innovation and source top tech talent.

By joining coding competitions, developers can improve their programming skills & reputation, win prizes & cash awards, cryptocurrency tokens, commissions, or even equity, and find new job opportunities.

Developers can join as single entities or create or join teams to tackle the challenges.

Additional platform features are a Hackathon Calendar & Map (https://rackathon.io/upcoming-hackathons-calendar-map/) and instant notifications. A mobile App is in the making will be released in the coming weeks.
