SUMMARY:AI Hackathon 2026
DESCRIPTION:About the event\nDuring this hackathon\, you will develop a complete innovation project in three days. You will do this in a team\, under the guidance of an experienced coach. At the end of the third day\, you will present the results to a jury. \nWhy participate?\n\nYou will develop new knowledge and technical skills.\nYou will meet motivated and interesting experts in the sector.\nYou can add relevant professional experience to your resume.\nYou will improve your English communication skills.\n\nThis challenge is part of a strategy and commitment to strengthen Belgium’s digital sovereignty. Participants will work locally on secure computers\, using only open source AI models. \nThe goal is to demonstrate how sovereign AI can improve the internal processes of a public administration while ensuring data protection\, model transparency\, and technological control. \nTeams will be required to:\n\nBring their own data (internal documents\, reports\, FAQs\, procedures\, etc.) and create a RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) system—i.e.\, an AI assistant capable of answering questions by querying local files and knowledge bases.\nDevelop a Proof of Concept (POC) that demonstrates how this approach can simplify or automate an existing process in their department (examples: internal support\, document research\, report writing\, file tracking).\nThe ultimate goal is to show how sovereign AI solutions\, hosted and controlled by public services\, can increase the efficiency\, security\, and technological autonomy of the administration.\n\nFinal deliverable:\nEach team will present its functional prototype and results to a jury of experts composed of specialists in AI and public innovation.
