The format is designed to help attendees: - Find international teammates and potential long-term collaborators - Build and demonstrate an AI project under hackathon conditions - Gain visibility among Big Tech companies and startup ecosystems - Compete alongside talented developers, researchers and founders - Explore potential support for turning a project into a company - Access possible exposure to venture capital and acceleration opportunities No specific experience threshold is stated, but the programme is particularly relevant to technical builders, AI researchers, startup founders and ambitious students who are ready to contribute to a working project. Both independent participants and pre-formed teams can apply. A hackathon connected to the wider AI ecosystem… Register for this event

⌖ Berlin · Merantix AI Campus

Hosted by Make

Explore how AI voice agents, CRM integrations and no-code automation can transform customer support at this closed-door breakfast roundtable in Berlin. Hosted by ElevenLabs and Make, this invitation-only session brings together senior Customer Support, Customer Experience and AI leaders who are building and scaling modern support operations. It takes place on Wednesday 9 September 2026 at the Merantix AI Campus, Europe’s hub for AI. From first call to final resolution The roundtable will examine how AI voice agents and intelligent workflow orchestration can reshape the frontline customer experience. Rather than stopping at a standalone voice demo, the hosts will look at the wider operational challenge: connecting voice interactions with CRMs, messaging applications and other business systems, then coordinating those tools as part of a reliable support workflow. The conversation will focus on: - What customer support automations are now possible with AI voice agents - How to orchestrate workflows across multiple systems - Connecting tools through APIs and MCP - Moving voice automation from an initial pilot into production - Scaling AI-enabled support while maintaining an effective resolution process A short demonstration will show how ElevenLabs’ voice technology can work with Make’s visual automation platform. Make enables teams to connect tools,including ElevenLabs, ChatGPT, messaging apps and CRMs,and create anything from straightforward automations to complex AI workflows and agents without writing code. Agenda and format - 9:45: Doors open - 10:00: Opening remarks and demo - 10:15: Roundtable discussion - 10:45: Networking - 11:30: Closing With approximately 20 places, this is designed as a candid peer discussion rather than a large conference or sales presentation. Attendees can compare practical challenges, hear how other senior operators are approaching AI-led support, and make useful connections over breakfast. Registration requires host approval, and attendees must apply using a business email address. The exact venue address in Berlin will be shared with approved participants.… Register for this event

⌖ Ho Chi Minh City

Hosted by Codex Meetups Vietnam

Build an AI tool with Codex and explore lower-cost GPT-5.6 workflows at this hands-on buildathon in Ho Chi Minh City on 19 August 2026. Hosted by Codex Meetups Vietnam in collaboration with ElevenLabs, BuildStuffs, and sixonefourlabs, this practical evening is designed to help Vietnamese developers, founders, and startups build more, spend less, and ship faster. Rather than stopping at talks, attendees will work in small groups to turn an idea into a tool, workflow, visualisation, or site. What you’ll explore The event focuses on OpenAI’s new GPT-5.6 pricing and three-model strategy. Organisers will explain how Luna is now 80% cheaper, Terra is 20% cheaper, and Sol Fast can run up to 2.5× faster,and, more importantly, what those changes unlock for real products and startup budgets. The live build will explicitly demonstrate how to choose between models: - Sol for planning and difficult judgement - Terra for everyday implementation - Luna for repetitive or high-volume work - Codex for inspecting, building, testing, and refining the result You can also expect live Codex demonstrations, practical startup workflows, and ideas for reducing AI costs without sacrificing quality. The opening update will cover GPT-5.6, lower pricing, ChatGPT Work, Voice, and Sites. Evening format - 6:00–6:15pm: Arrival and networking - 6:15–6:30pm: What changed in the last 30 days - 6:30–8:30pm: Small-group build-together sprint - 8:30–10:00pm: Two-minute community demos A few venture capital investors have been invited to attend the demos, giving teams an additional opportunity to show what they have created. Community sharing, networking, and conversations with local builders run throughout the evening. Who should attend? The buildathon welcomes both first-time AI builders and people scaling production applications. Beginners can pair with more experienced participants, while established developers and founders can test model-routing and cost-optimisation ideas against a concrete use case. Bring your laptop and an idea you would genuinely like to build; the goal is to leave with practical workflows you can apply immediately.… Register for this event

The hackathon brings together professionals whose credits span Netflix, Prime Video, and beyond, challenging them to create cinema-quality work using cutting-edge AI video generation, voice synthesis, and editing tools. The brief is simple but demanding: no placeholders, no demos, just real films that work on the big screen. What to Expect The premiere offers a full cinema experience with a live awards ceremony recognizing excellence across five categories. A panel of judges from the creative and technical industries will announce winners on the night, celebrating the teams who best combined AI capabilities with storytelling craft. Semi-formal or formal attire is encouraged, and attendees are invited to bring a small prop from their favourite film to join the celebration. The Technology Stack Participants work with industry-leading AI tools including Wan (Alibaba's video generation model family), ElevenLabs for AI voice and audio generation, and fal.ai for fast inference at scale. The hackathon demonstrates how these frontier tools can be integrated into real production workflows when wielded by experienced creators who understand both the technical possibilities and the storytelling fundamentals. Event Partners The hackathon is supported by Dogpatch Labs (Dublin's premier startup hub hosting Day 1), Red Bull Ireland (fuelling the 24-hour sprint), Wolfpack Digital (award-winning product studio with teams in Dublin and Cluj-Napoca), and Napkin (Dublin's first AI creative studio).
