Join us for a one-of-a-kind event where learning, building, and impact come together. Take the opportunity to learn AI agent building and help local NGOs become more efficient in their operations.
2025 will be the year of AI agents, and this event is your chance to master how to create them. We’ll provide workshops, mentorship, and opportunities for post-event collaboration.
Participants will work with the goal of helping local NGOs become more impactful. A non-governmental organization (NGO) is an independent, nonprofit organization that operates outside government control. NGOs often focus on humanitarian or social issues.
Many NGOs face limited access to modern technology, volunteering shortages, and communication inefficiencies, and this hackathon is an opportunity to explore how AI can address these challenges.
Representatives from the NGOs will be onsite to share their day-to-day issues, provide datasets, highlight pain points, and offer feedback. It’s a fantastic way to contribute to meaningful solutions while gaining hands-on experience.
Participants will work closely with local NGOs to understand their challenges, gain insights into real-world needs, and co-create impactful AI solutions. This hands-on collaboration ensures the projects are not only innovative but also practical and directly aligned with the organizations’ goals.
Participants will receive guidance and resources from top AI companies, including access to cutting-edge tools, APIs, and platforms. Expert mentors from these companies will be available throughout the event to provide technical support and share best practices.
Engage in hands-on workshops covering essential AI technologies, from building intelligent agents to integrating no-code tools like n8n. These sessions are designed to equip participants with practical skills to develop impactful solutions during the hackathon.
Enjoy a supportive atmosphere that encourages experimentation, creativity, and growth. Whether you’re a seasoned coder or a beginner, this hackathon is a safe space to learn, try new ideas, and embrace the process—even if mistakes happen along the way.
This event is perfect for backend developers, data scientists, frontend developers, and full-stack engineers who are eager to create impactful AI-driven solutions.
Tailored for machine learning engineers, data engineers, NLP specialists, and computer vision experts looking to apply their skills to real-world challenges and create AI agents for social impact.
Ideal for automation enthusiasts, workflow designers, product managers, and innovators who want to leverage platforms like n8n to build AI-powered solutions without coding expertise.
Open to researchers, students, hobbyists, and tech enthusiasts passionate about AI who want to explore its potential and contribute to meaningful projects with local NGOs.
