National Security Hackathon (by Army xTech)

Join us for our 3rd annual national security hackathon, bringing the best builders in silicon valley to work on pressing problems for our nation. This year, we’re excited to welcome the US Army as an official partner via RFI, with support from Stanford’s Gordian Knot Center, Berkeley’s Defense Tech Society, and many other military stakeholders.

Apply to build on command & control, sensor integration, edge compute, cybersecurity, drones, and more, bouncing ideas off mentors & judges from the US government, military, and private industry leaders.

Top 5 teams will win $50,000 in CASH prizes, courtesy of the US Army.

Thank you to our amazing co-hosts at Shield Capital, our partners from IQT, DCVC, Palantir, and sponsors from OpenAI, Armada, Scale, Deloitte, Tenex, and Skyrun.
