It\u2019s truly a highlight of my year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This year, we\u2019re dialling up the energy by hosting the hackathon simultaneously in Berlin<\/strong> at the shiny Bosch Innovation Campus<\/strong><\/a>, and in sunny Porto<\/strong> at the cutting-edge 42 School<\/strong><\/a>. Two cities, one community, and one shared mission: to push the boundaries of automotive software innovation. Worried about missing out on what\u2019s happening across the continent? Don\u2019t be! We\u2019re fully streaming both venues to each other \u2013 you\u2019ll get real-time collaboration, live demos, and maybe even a bit of friendly rivalry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019ve never joined an SDV Hackathon before, here\u2019s the vibe: imagine 100 developers, students, and automotive nerds gathered together for 2.5 days of pure hacking joy<\/strong> \u2013 building prototypes, testing SDV tools and blueprints, and unlocking new automotive use cases like never before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At its core, the Eclipse SDV Hackathon is all about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether you’re refining SDV tooling or developing blueprint use cases, you’re contributing to something bigger: the transformation of the automotive industry through open collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Worried you\u2019ll be left alone with your team, the tech, and the challenges? Rest assured, you\u2019ll be in great hands with our skilled Hack MCs and dedicated coaches ready to guide you throughout the entire event. We\u2019re thrilled to welcome Andre Bott<\/strong>, Senior Manager of Project Delivery at Bosch Digital, as our charismatic Hack MC this year. Expect competence, energy, and engagement. His wingman, Christian Heissenberger<\/strong>, Technical Program Manager SDV at Eclipse Foundation, will be assisting from the front lines to keep the show smooth and spirited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, our seasoned Hack Coaches<\/strong> from leading OEMs and suppliers<\/strong> and more will be right there with you. They\u2019ll guide you, challenge you, and celebrate with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Together with our partners FEDERATE<\/strong><\/a> and HAL4SDV<\/strong><\/a>, we\u2019ve spared no effort to make sure this event is not just productive, but unforgettable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Simple answer: everyone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Are you a student just stepping into the world of automotive software? You\u2019re in. A veteran dev looking to make your mark on open source SDV? You\u2019re so<\/em> in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Come solo or bring a team. The only thing you need is curiosity, coding spirit, and an interest in open source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Plus, you\u2019ll get to witness (and maybe be part of!) the next wave of SDV solutions that will shape the automotive industry \u2013 a truly priceless experience!<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve got room for only 100 hackers<\/strong>, and we expect those spots to go fast.
