Over time I have participated in several 48h, some official and others not.
There are several reasons that led me to be part of it:
- You are challenged to solve a real problem in limited amount of time, sometime the constraint of time helps you think of creative solutions
- By participating you get experience which is worth when you try to solve something in your work or personal projects
- You make friends and meet different people, sometimes CEO, CTO of different companies
