With 91 pitches by teams from all over the world, the jury at TechCrunch Disrupt Europe had a difficult task choosing the best hackathon projects. The teams had 24 hours to code a product and 60 seconds to pitch it. Every team who pitched got 2 free tickets to Disrupt Europe 2013, the 3 best teams got to pitch at Disrupt and the big winner additionally received a $5,000 check. This year’s Disrupt Europe saw several projects creating solutions and evolving around some established companies like Zalando, Foursquare, Lufthansa or Box APIs which were also among sponsors.

Winner : Foursquare PreCheck-In has a real business core to it. The solution allows businesses to offer up in advance services and products to potential customers who previously prechecked-in, encouraging them to actually go through with their visit and thus delivering better customer service.
