## No Team? No Problem!
The Datathon thrives on collaboration and creative ideas. Working in teams of four also helps keep the number of final presentations manageable, allowing more time for discussion and feedback.
You can register either as an existing team or as an individual participant. If you join without a team, we will help you form one with other participants at the beginning of the event.
Teams with fewer than four members may be combined with other participants to form complete teams.

## Food & Drinks
Water and coffee will be available throughout the event.
Thanks to a generous contribution from the Dean's Office of Technology and Bionics, **dinner and snacks** are secured for all participants.
If we receive additional sponsorship or donations, we plan to expand the beverage selection and would also like to offer breakfast.

## FAQ
### 1. Can I stay overnight on campus?
Unfortunately, not this year. Despite our call for volunteers, we were unable to secure enough support staff to safely offer overnight accommodation on campus.
You are welcome to stay until approximately 9:00 PM on the first day. The venue will reopen at 8:00 AM the following morning.
We hope to make overnight participation possible in future editions.
### 2. Can I participate remotely?
No. One of the goals of the HSRW Datathon is to bring people together on campus, encourage networking, and create a vibrant in-person experience. Unfortunately, this cannot be fully achieved through remote participation.
### 3. German or English?
That's entirely up to you. Teams may work and present in either German or English.
We are currently exploring options for simultaneous translation during the final presentations.
