​Time to Accelerate European Defense Innovation

​The mission continues: at the same time as the Munich Security Conference, we'll be organizing once again Europe's largest defense tech hackathon:

​​Join us and 150+ hackers from all across Europe and beyond for the third edition of the European Defense Tech Hackathon on February 13-16, 2025, in Munich.

​Connect with fellow defense innovators, find a co-founder, and develop solutions that eventually will save lives!

​​​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 folks who have been on the frontline to ensure you're solving real problems.

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