European AI Intelligence Hackathon – Belgrade
Time to Protect Europe’s Information Environment 🤖
Join us and 100+ hackers from all across Europe and beyond for the first European AI Intelligence Hackathon on June 5-7, 2026, in Belgrade, Serbia.
Europe’s information environment is under constant pressure.
Bringing this hackathon to Belgrade together with Reputeo means engaging closely with both the challenge and the capability:
A city where information flows collide, yet with one of the strongest pools of technical talent in Europe—making it the right place to build systems that cut through noise and strengthen a more resilient, fact-based information space.
There’s a new generation of builders who are outward-looking, aligned with European values, and ready to tackle real problems
Join us to meet fellow builders, meet potential co-founders, and create AI-native intelligence tools that detect narratives, surface threats, and turn open-source data into real understanding.

Goal
We want to bridge the gap between technologists, analysts, public institutions, and operators working on intelligence and the information environment.
This hackathon is about building real AI systems that turn open-source data into signal—and showing the depth of technical talent across Europe.
Work on challenges around AI, OSINT, and real-time intelligence — or bring your own idea. You’ll get direct feedback from people who deal with these problems daily, ensuring you’re building something that actually holds up beyond a demo.
The ultimate goal is simple: to put you in a position to deploy your prototype in the real world after the event is over.
Visitors
If you’re curious about the outcomes and what the teams have built, you can join the Demo Day on Sunday as an EDTH Community visitor by selecting a Community Visitor ticket.
