The Hackathons and Mentoring Programme are part of the EU Defence Innovation Scheme (EUDIS). They give a unique opportunity to get acquainted with the European defence sector, connect with like-minded individuals and organisations, and use your knowledge and skills to solve current defence challenges together as a team!

The EUDIS hackathon 2024 will take place in six hybrid locations over Europe simultaneously. The challenges, timeline and EU-level prizes will stay the same, and the six hackathons will only have some location specific differences!

INSPIRE - Centre of Excellence on inclusive gender equality in R&I

Funded by Horizon Europe, under call topic HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01-80, INSPIRE is Europe's Centre of Excellence on inclusive gender equality in research and innovation. It relies on four Knowledge and Support Hubs to create knowledge in the areas of sustaining change, widening participation, intersectionality and innovation. Moreover, it supports stakeholders in their journey to become more inclusive through 12 Communities of Practice. In this way, INSPIRE aims to develop both cutting-edge knowledge and innovative strategies for gender equality in the European Research Area. INSPIRE brings together 14 partners. The Belgian partner in this project is UHasselt.
