Munich Neuromorphic Hackathon

For the third time in a row, the Munich Neuromorphic Hackathon 2025 is taking place in collaboration with NeuroTUM. The event will be held in Munich from November 7 to 12 (with a break on November 9).

In interdisciplinary teams, participants will tackle challenging industry challenges set by the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Simi Reality Motion Systems, and fortiss. The goal is to develop the most efficient neuromorphic processor using brain-inspired computing methods. This provides an opportunity to gain technical insights, make contacts, and exchange ideas on current developments in neuromorphic systems.

The teams will present their results on November 12. The winning team will receive a special prize donated by the sponsors “STANCE” (Fraunhofer ITWM) and gAIn – Next Generation AI Computing.
