On the occasion of World Tourism Day (September 27), Orange Jordan, in partnership with the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities (MOTA), announced the launch of the “Digital Solutions Hackathon for the Tourism Sector.” The initiative, running from October to December 2025, invites university students from across the Kingdom to develop innovative digital solutions that promote inclusive tourism, with a special focus on improving access for persons with disabilities.
MOTA will support the hackathon by assigning a mentor and a jury member to guide participants and evaluate their ideas. The initiative reflects Orange Jordan’s commitment to digital empowerment and to making a positive societal impact, especially in tourism — a key driver of Jordan’s national economy.
Operating under the theme “Differently Abled, Definitely Enabled,” the hackathon encourages students to harness creativity and technology to reduce barriers to tourism services. The program also highlights Orange Jordan’s pledge to act as a responsible digital leader, prioritizing inclusivity and ethical innovation.
Participants will be judged on the feasibility and innovativeness of their ideas, with selected teams advancing to prototype development. The winners will be revealed on December 3, 2025, coinciding with the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
Registration is open through Orange Jordan’s official online channels, offering students from all disciplines an opportunity to shape the future of inclusive tourism in Jordan.
