Скачать или смотреть European Defense Tech Hackathon | Munich, June 2024

On the last week of June 2024, we gathered 100+ hackers from across Europe and abroad in Munich for the first European Defense Tech Hackathon and 48 hours of intense hacking.

It wasn’t just about drones. How about fluorescent nanoparticles to track unmanned vehicles? Or using machine learning for 3D map reconstruction and environmental change detection?

34 projects originated from the hackathon that could save lives, and we’re super excited to see how they will evolve.

We’re not in the business of organizing hackathons for the sake of hackathons. Our goal is to catalyze startups that develop solutions to actual solutions and products that get deployed in the real world.

At this point, we’d like to thank our sponsors and supporters for making this event possible—first and foremost, Entrepreneur First, Helsing, and Auterion, whose early commitment has been crucial to getting this off the ground.

We would also like to thank many others, including DefSecIntel Solutions, Spleenlab, Quantum-Systems, Lambda Automata, TYTAN Technologies, ARX Robotics, General Catalyst, D3 Venture Capital Firm, Presto Ventures, Project A, Inflection.xyz, Bundeswehr University Munich, TUM Venture Labs Aerospace, BRAVE1, Bundeswehr Cyber Innovation Hub, and ​the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

See you for another hackathon edition in February 2025 in conjunction with the Munich Security Conference.
