Contino Supports the Royal Air Force at Its First Ever Hackathon

In July 2021, Contino spent the week with RAF Halton providing technical expertise to Royal Air Force (RAF) personnel at its inaugural hackathon.

The event was part of Astra, the Air Force’s transformation programme, and was a unique opportunity for the organisation to identify personnel that can code and deliver software to improve the way the RAF does business.

[Attendees] have found the level of support that Contino has given, and the industry expertise that they brought to [the hackathon], invaluable. The feedback that I’ve got is that they never would have been able to achieve what they’ve achieved on their own.

“It was a fantastic week and we really enjoyed mentoring participants who came from all over the country to code, innovate and deliver real business value to the RAF.”
