​Goal

​We want to bridge the gaps between technologists, the public sector, investors, and operators in dual-use and defense technology. This hackathon will demonstrate the talent and drive of the European ecosystem.

​Get inspired by the challenges we have prepared, or feel free to bring your own project. You'll get feedback from military personnel with hands-on experience in defense operations to ensure you're solving real problems.

​Our goal with the hackathon is to put you in a position to continue towards deployment.
