Paris
Time to Accelerate European Defense Innovation 🚀
Start Building Things Together!
In this hackathon, it's all about co-creation and working together. So the first task is to find your team and tasks or even create your own. For this we have prepared a team formation space here on the page. Why don't you just go there and check it out?
Join us and 200+ hackers from all across Europe and beyond for the European Defense Tech Hackathon on June 12-14, 2026, in Paris, France, right before Eurosatory.
We're thrilled to co-organize this hackathon with the team behind the Adopt AI Summit (Dec 3-4, 2026, at Grand Palais)—matching AI expertise with real-world deployment needs in the defense sector.

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.
