Use Case

L'Oréal: 150 employees ship 12 AI prototypes on real products in 3 days

After a 2025 hackathon showed L'Oréal teams what AI agents could do, the challenge was making sure that energy didn't stay a one-off. AI Partners designed and ran a three-day, gamified hackathon for 150 employees, opening with a keynote from Anthropic, where every team shipped a working prototype on a real business use case.
“The event was extremely well-organized and structured, with clear information shared very efficiently. The speakers were excellent, and the use cases presented were highly engaging and relevant.”
— Salim Bouanani, Product Owner - Global Media Program, L'Oréal

The challenges

L'Oréal's teams had discovered the potential of AI agents, but that knowledge stayed disconnected from day-to-day projects and risked fading without a path to production.

AI Skills With Nowhere to Land

In 2025, L'Oréal teams discovered what AI agents could do, but that knowledge stayed disconnected from their actual projects.

More Than a One-Off Exercise

Without a clear link to the business, the energy from the 2025 hackathon risked staying a one-off instead of building lasting momentum.

The solution

AI Partners designed a three-day, gamified hackathon anchored in real business use cases, giving every team the structure to ship a working prototype, not just a slide.
01

Three Days, 150 Builders

A three-day hackathon (June 8 to 10, 2026) for 150 employees, organized into gamified teams and opened with a keynote from Anthropic.
02

Built on Real Business Problems

Each team built a working prototype directly on a live business use case, including CAT Center, Field IQ and PM Experience, rather than a hypothetical scenario.
03

From Prototype to Roadmap

Production roadmaps were discussed the day after the hackathon, turning prototypes into candidates for real deployment.
