ProgrammesThe Belgian Navy Hackathon is an Open Innovation event. It brings together Navy personnel and civilian professionals, representing the entire Belgian maritime ecosystem.
On September 24 and 25, participants will work in small, multidisciplinary groups to imagine, develop, and pitch projects for solving concrete, urgent challenges identified jointly by the Navy and the maritime ecosystem.
Winning projects will be presented during Captains of Industry Day at TECHNOFest 2024 on October 4.
Four challenges for this hackathon have been identified by the Navy staff and validated by representatives of the maritime ecosystem in four workshops.
Solving these hard challenges will take the knowledge and experience of dozens of people, and of course your fresh perspective, your ingenuity, and your ability to think creatively and strategically.

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
