The document summarizes a Hackathon event held at the Museu Picasso in Barcelona to encourage open data sharing and innovation in cultural heritage. The Museu Picasso participated to spread knowledge more widely and support open content. At the Hackathon, 20 developers created 17 projects using open data from sources like Europeana. The outcomes benefited Europeana through promotion, the Museu Picasso by positioning it as innovative, and developers through networking and recognition. Challenges included encouraging open data use and ensuring Hackathon prototypes become real apps.

Editor's Notes
- The Museu Picasso hosted a Europeana Hackathon in June 2011 The hackathons are workshops bringing together competent and enthusiastic software developers to build cool projects within a day or two (sketches, prototypes, even working applications).
- You may be wondering: why the Museu Picasso got involved in a Hackathon?
- So, the hackathon philosphy lies on Open Data context
- the philosophy of making content and tools available to users is what leads the joint effort of museums+Europeana+developers: -Museums have the collections and the aim of extending knowledge and enjoyment of it to the greatest possible number of users. -Europeana currently offers access to near 20 million cultural objects, has the same aim as the Museum. -The expert developers have the skills and the talent to make the data ‘play’ and extract open applications that are made accessible to the public.
- Amazing what could be done in just one and a half day!!!
- - Going Mobile : applications for bringing Europeana to mobile devices - Multilingual : applications that facilitate mashups to provide translations or create multilingual tags for Europeana metadata - Going Social : applications for bringing Europeana metadata to the social networks - Data Visualization : combining data to visually and user-ftriendly present the different types of content on Europeana
