Welcome🌞 to the GenAI Zürich Hackathon 2026

Hello all,

Welcome to the GenAI Zürich Hackathon 2026!
Great to have you on board!🚀

Here's the essentials:
March 2 — Challenges go live, remote build begins (own ideas accepted as well)
March 18 — Prototype submission deadline
April 1–2 — Shortlisted teams hack on-site at Volkshaus Zürich (min. 1 team member must attend in person)

You can participate solo or in a team of up to 5 — all formats welcome. That said, most of you are still looking for teammates, and we'd love to help! Just send us a note with a quick intro (your background + what you're looking for, email) and we'll connect you with others.
You can also browse participants directly: https://genaizurich.devpost.com/participants

For the Hack you'll have support from our partners Lovable, Hugging Face, and Databricks to help you build. The Getting Start Guide will be ready Feb. 25th/18:00 and published here.

Questions? Please reach out to us at hackathon@genaizurich.com or post in the discussion forum.

Kindly Sabine + the whole GenAI Zürich team
