About this event
ABOUT
Europe is at a critical moment in AI. Falling behind isn’t an option. We need to build an independent, strong AI ecosystem—starting now.
At North Star AGI, we’re focused on building Artificial General Intelligence—AI that can think, learn, and create across fields. That goal drives everything we do.
We care about results. We're building a hands-on community where engineers, researchers, students, and builders team up to shape Europe’s AI future. You don’t need a perfect résumé—just grit, curiosity, and time. We’ll back you with resources and people.
We’ve already kicked things off—our first Antwerp hackathon pulled in over 60 people and got the local scene moving in just two months.
Our next hackathon is May 10. This is only the start. We’re building an AI hub that draws global talent—with real work, not fluff.

Judging Criteria Update
We're evolving how we evaluate projects. This time, a code submission will be required to complement the video and text descriptions. Don't worry, all IP rights remain yours! If your project doesn't involve code, detailed documentation on the process will be necessary.
The creativity and memorability of your pitch video will also be a factor. Make it stand out! Team size remains capped at 3 people per team.
