Join us for this collaborative event with Give(a)Go and our regional partners, The Mill in Drogheda for a one-day hackathon on sustainability problems in energy, waste, food, transport and climate. Pick a problem you care about, build something that works with AI and tech, and demo it to the room at 4:15pm.
What to expect
Have fun and learn how to build with AI
Meet like-minded people, and maybe a co-founder
Hear about grants and funding for sustainability and community projects
Leave with a tested idea and a cool demo
Who it’s for
Founders, developers, designers, students and anyone who cares about climate. You don’t need a business idea, coding experience or sustainability know-how.
Come solo or bring a team of up to 4. If you’re on your own, you can find teammates in the morning.
Project ideas
A few examples to get you thinking. We expect you to come up with your own creative ideas.
An agent that reads a café’s supplier invoices and works out its real carbon footprint per coffee
A computer-vision model that spots contamination in recycling bins from a phone photo
A Boyne river digital twin that predicts flooding from sensor and weather data
An AI auditor that checks companies’ green claims against their actual reports
Bring your laptop and charger.
A free bus runs between Drogheda train station and The Mill, there and back. Let us know when you register if you’d like a seat.
