Space Apps 2023 will be coming to you on October 7- 8, 2023. We’re excited to embark with you on this journey!

A journey that started in Romania in 2016. Here a short video to give you an idea of previous editions and the excitement that comes with it.

Follow us on our national Facebook, or join our national Facebook group.

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE IN THE HACKATHON?

Space Apps is for everyone! This includes those who have never “hacked’ before! All passionate problem solvers are encouraged to join - students, experts, engineers, makers, artists, and storytellers. While some of our challenges are technical, others ask you to use your artistic skills, your business acumen, and your historical imaginations! In other words, you do not need to be a coder or data expert to be part of Space Apps.

During the weekend you will work together to develop an innovative solution to your challenge (be it a website, a mobile app, a concept or a hardware prototype). Your team will present the solution to a jury of experts. The best solutions will then compete on a global level!

Recruit Friends

We encourage you to invite your friends along! Typical Space Apps teams have 2-6 participants (the limit is 6 members per team). Space Apps is all about collaboration and the most successful teams are often ones with a diverse set of skills and expertise -- coding, storytelling, creativity, data, science, engineering, technology, and more.

We can also help you join a team before the event in case you don't have one.

Come join in this collaborative, problem-solving, open innovation competition!
