women get IT done: Te Toca x WINZ Hackathon

​Women Get IT Done. A Te Toca × WiNZ hackathon, two evenings with a full week to build in between. Come join us!

​Te Toca is a Swiss women's health startup working on breast awareness and body literacy. A wearable bra with tactile guidance, an app, and workshops that 460+ women have been through.

​Women in Informatics Network Zurich (WiNZ) is the UZH ACM-W chapter, running academic, career, and community events for women in tech.

​Building on a real product, with real users and the founders right there in the room.

​How it works

• ​1 Oct, evening. You start by going through the Te Toca workshop yourself. Then, design thinking coaching to get your head into the problem, the challenge reveal, and Q&A. After that, you form your teams, and prepare to get locked in for the week.

• ​The week in between. Build on your own schedule. Each team has a WiNZ and a Te Toca mentor to check in with, and the app to poke at as much as you want.

• ​8 Oct, evening. Five minutes to pitch, three to answer the judges. Winners and prizes, then an apéro to close it out.

​You get

• ​Direct mentoring from the Te Toca founding team and WiNZ

• ​Opportunity to work on a problem that actually impacts women

• ​Access to the Lovable Pro Plan to power your building phase

• ​Prizes for the winners

• ​An apéro to celebrate once the pitches are done

​Spots are limited. Apply by 25.09.2026.

​While the event is primarily designed by and for women to build community and career opportunities in technology, we welcome everyone, but prioritize women to ensure a supportive and inclusive space for all participants.
