Özyeğin University Students Design A New Generation Agency Portal in Gulf Insurance’s “Agency Portal Development Hackathon”
The Agency Portal Development Hackathon organized by Gulf Insurance for Özyeğin University students took place from March 11 through March 23, 2022 within the scope of this year’s Sectoral Orienteering week. During the competition, students designed an innovative agency portal to bring ease to agencies in their relationships with their insurance companies. Open to students from all departments, the hackathon was co-organized by Gulf Insurance and Özyeğin University to enable agencies to make the most of existing digital amenities, and help them access the most accurate information in the quickest way possible through new platforms.
The hackathon jury made up of senior executives of Gulf Insurance evaluated proposed portals across a wide range of criteria including the portal’s use for agencies, creativity, functionality, and capability for integration with existing products and services. The grand finale took place on March 23, 2022 where three winning teams were honored with awards.
Zeynep Işıl Rabuş, sophomore Industrial Design student at the Faculty of Architecture and Design, İdel Toros, sophomore International Business and Trade student at the Faculty of Business, Aylin Aydın, senior Computer Science student at the Faculty of Engineering, Aslı Nur Demirkol, senior Industrial Design student at the Faculty of Architecture and Design, Elif Sena Demirkol, senior Industrial Design student at the Faculty of Architecture and Design, Gizem Yaralı, senior Communication Design student at the Faculty of Architecture and Design, Hüseyin Acemli, freshman Electrical-Electronics Engineering student at the Faculty of Engineering, Egemen Yorulmaz, freshman Electrical-Electronics Engineering student at the Faculty of Engineering, Yunus Emre Aslan, freshman Industrial Engineering student at the Faculty of Engineering, competed in three separate teams.
We would like to congratulate our students on their achievements and wish them continued success.
