Abstract

This study aimed to verify the opinion of promoters of anti-corruption programming marathons about the results of such events held in Brazil since 2000. In 18 actions of this type that took place during the period, 58 projects were awarded, but only two were effectively available to the public and presented updated data in 2020. Thus, what drives the organizers of these hackathons to continue holding them? To this end, two fronts of research were conducted in this study. With the data obtained, it was observed that tangible results are always sought, as opposed to intangible ones. Contradictorily, the latter are the ones that have brought the most learning and growth (using the events as a strategy for innovation, starting from the participation of society in this process) to the organizing institutions of the events under analysis (especially the public ones), while the fight against corruption seems to take a back seat, appearing as an indirect consequence of holding the programming marathons.
