Join the Hackathon in Ivano-Frankivsk!
Interested in space technology? Learn how to utilise it and design a solution to make Europe safer and stronger. The 8th CASSINI Hackathon provides training, mentoring, and inspiration to build your own solution and – maybe – be involved in your own space startup. Big ideas start inside the Hackathon…
Registration is free, and anyone can join – no experience necessary. Come along (in person or virtually) to hear from national experts in business and space technology. Watch our training sessions and delve into the vault of EU space data from Copernicus, EGNOS and Galileo. Bring or join a team, and develop a solution for one of three challenges:
- Enhancing Defence & Security with Geospatial Intelligence
- Unmanned Drone Applications for Defence & Security Operations
- Orbital Security: Navigating the Collision Frontier
Ukraine’s resilience and innovation have positioned the nation as a key player in space technology, especially in the field of drones and satellite intelligence. This Hackathon will unite local entrepreneurs, scientists, and students, and hardware engineers, equipping them with the inspiration and knowledge to develop real solutions and protect their country.
The weekend is an unmissable chance to learn, collaborate, and become part of the local space ecosystem. Join us in Ivano-Frankivsk between 22-24 November 2024 and discover the vast potential of EU space data.
Prizes
At the end of the Hackathon, every team has the opportunity to present their solution to our expert judging panel. Three winning teams will receive prizes to support and develop their ventures.
- €5,000 in cash (divided between the three winning teams)
- Business support prizes including coworking space and educational opportunities

The top 3 teams across all competing hackathons will be awarded an additional 100 hours of expert mentoring.
