EUDIS Hackathon: autumn registration is open

Event: 2026-10-15 / 2026-10-17 · Europe

The Commission opened participant registration on 31 August. The onsite event takes place on 15-17 October 2026 in Austria, Cyprus, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Norway, Portugal and Sweden.

The theme is autonomy on the battlefield. Eligible startups, SMEs, engineers, researchers and technology professionals are invited. The website provides local registration routes; the September 10 information session has already taken place.

Choose a host and check its conditions before making travel plans. Our suggestion is to arrive with a narrow problem and a testable idea. A short hackathon can produce a clear result and useful contacts, but does not establish that a prototype is ready for deployment.
