City To Sea Hackathon
WHY?
The Baltic Sea region is home to more than 85 million people living next to one of the most polluted and densely trafficked seas in the world.
City to Sea hackathon will address this by aligning innovative ecosystems with leading initiatives such as New European Bauhaus, Fit For 55, and the European Green Deal.
WHAT?
From April 22 to 24, powered by the Mission "Sea 2030”, Riga will host an international 48-hour hackathon "City to Sea" dedicated to Aquaculture and Urban Mobility.
The total prize budget is 9000 EUR per track. Applications for hackathon are open until April 15. The best teams will be awarded cash prizes and have a chance to pilot solutions with the major industry players.
WHO?
Hackaton "City to Sea'' is organized by the Latvian Investment and Development Agency and facilitated by Riga Technical University, the innovation movement VEFRESH with the support of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) innovation community EIT Food and EIT Urban Mobility, as well as the Lithuanian digital innovation centre Agrifood Lithuania DIH.
