The Netherlands now has its very own Hackatrain. The Hackatrain is a train in which 50 teams of 3 hackers will be brought together to build innovative solutions to make travelling by train more pleasant. Departing from Amsterdam, the Hackatrain takes off on July 14th from Amsterdam and has the Tech Open Air festival in Berlin as its final destination.
