Three groundbreaking communications applications demonstrated using Radisys’ award-winning platform.

Radisys^® Corporation, a global leader of open telecom solutions, is pleased to congratulate the winners of TADHack Global 2023, the world’s premier global hackathon focusing on programmable communication solutions. Radisys empowered participants from across the globe to develop innovative communication solutions using the award-winning Engage Digital Platform (EDP), a powerful CPaaS 4.0 platform that enables developers to create a diverse portfolio of differentiated AI-based digital engagements services, including conversational AI and Industry 4.0 relevant audio/video analytic applications.

The TADHack Global event, sponsored by Radisys, was held October 21-22, 2023, ahead of Network X, an industry-leading broadband network event for enterprises and telcos. Participants competed across numerous in-person locations and virtually around the world to develop apps or “hacks” that address real-world customer challenges and use cases using Radisys’ EDP’s simple-to-use communications APIs, SDKs and low-code/no-code visual design tools. From 20 hacks developed using EDP, Radisys awarded three winners as the most innovative solutions. The TADHack winners will also present their solutions to industry leaders at Network X.
