The 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.

  • Underwater infrastructure protection
  • Anti-drone measures

  • Public Awareness for Accelerating Recruitment

  • Resilience of the Logistical Infrastructure
