Build and ship a working Physical AI prototype at HackLab’s intensive 48-hour Robotics x AI Hackathon, held at CIC Berlin on 14–15 November 2026. Designed for people who want to move beyond discussing the future of robotics and start creating it, HackLab 2 brings builders together for two focused days of development, hardware training and experimentation. Participants will form teams, develop innovative robotics and AI projects, and turn ambitious ideas into real prototypes before presenting their work live. Who should attend? The hackathon is aimed at builders, engineers, startup founders and researchers working in or exploring robotics and AI. It is particularly relevant to technically minded participants who want practical experience with Physical AI, opportunities to meet potential collaborators, and direct exposure to others building at the frontier of intelligent hardware. The organisers highlight several reasons to take part: - Collaborate with robotics and AI talent and industry leaders - Build and showcase a cutting-edge robotics solution - Compete for more than €10,000 in cash, hardware and other prizes - Explore potential job and internship opportunities - Receive free credits from participating technology providers for use during the hackathon - Meet founders, researchers and engineers shaping the future of robotics Partners, co-hosts, technology providers and the precise prize categories are still to be announced. Updates will be shared through HackLab’s LinkedIn page. Hackathon schedule The in-person programme takes place at CIC Berlin, Lohmühlenstraße 65, in Berlin.
