Hackathons
AI hackathons in Amsterdam
TAG runs hackathons on its floor in Amsterdam Oost for people who would rather build than talk. Teams form on the day, partners bring credits, cash and judges, and the best projects demo in front of the room.

What a TAG hackathon is like
Most run for a day or a weekend. You can come alone and find a team in the first hour, or bring your own. Expect partner workshops, mentors walking the floor, and a demo round where a jury picks the winners.

Questions
Do I need a team to join a hackathon?
No. Many people come alone and team up at the start. You can also bring your own team.
Do I need to be an expert in AI?
No. Teams mix engineers, designers and founders. What matters is that you want to build something by the end.
