🟠Mentors will help teams develop their solutions.  They are ready to motivate and provide new perspectives so teams can reach their goals!

🟠The entire creative experience will be curated by hackathon facilitators, the organizing team, and the coolest volunteers.

🟠At the end of the event, the solutions proposed by the teams will be evaluated by a panel of judges made up of entrepreneurship experts.

Solve

Clinical decision-support assistant for doctors

Create a clinical decision-support assistant that automatically analyzes a patient’s health data (diagnoses, tests, medications, lifestyle information, and, if available, genetic data); detects potential causes of treatment ineffectiveness such as interactions, contraindications, missing tests, or risk factors; and provides evidence-based directions for further diagnostics or treatment adjustments with clearly cited sources, helping the doctor make informed clinical decisions.

Solve

Edge solution for real-time device control based on load

Create an edge solution that evaluates real-time electrical grid load on the client side; autonomously makes decisions and controls devices (EV chargers, heat pumps, storage units) without central latency; integrates with ESO signals and helps ensure stable, balanced, and efficient local grid operation.

Solve

Autonomous onboard work progress and quality monitoring system

Create an autonomous solution that uses cameras or other sensors to monitor work zones onboard; evaluates workers’ task progress, quality, and safety aspects in real time; operates fully autonomously and provides accurate insights to ensure smooth, safe, and efficient work execution on the ship.

Solve

Personalized energy-saving recommendations tool

Create a data-driven energy consumption analysis tool that automatically evaluates a user’s electricity usage data; identifies inefficiencies and segments users based on behavior; generates personalized energy-saving recommendations, providing clear visualizations, potential savings, and modeling scenarios that encourage more sustainable and conscious energy use.

Solve

AIO – AI content optimization platform

Create an AI optimization platform that automatically generates and calibrates marketing content for different AI agents; adapts website and social media information so that AI models interpret, evaluate, and recommend it correctly; ensures greater visibility in AI responses, consistent brand positioning, and reduces the risk of misinterpretation in a rapidly evolving AI-driven digital environment.

Solve

Automated Processing for Medical Statistics & Call Center Optimization
