Nebius Build Week Hackathon in partnership with NVIDIA

Inside the event

Build something real with Nebius and NVIDIA before GTC Berlin begins. On Sunday, 18 October, Nebius is bringing together around 250 AI engineers, agent builders, startup teams and technical practitioners for a full day of hands-on building in Berlin. Teams will use Nebius AI Cloud, Serverless, Token Factory, Tavily and NVIDIA technologies to build practical AI applications, agents and workflows. The day starts with technical workshops, followed by more than six hours of hacking, support from onsite mentors, and final demos and judging. Choose your track: Cloud & Serverless - Build and deploy AI services, inference endpoints, evaluation pipelines or reusable deployment templates using Nebius infrastructure. Apps & Agentic AI - Create agents and AI applications that solve real problems using open models, Nebius Token Factory and Tavily for real-time web search. Vertical AI - Build for areas such as healthcare and life sciences, physical AI & robotics, media and entertainment. Participants will also be able to build with NVIDIA Nemotron through Nebius Token Factory as part of a dedicated NVIDIA challenge. NVIDIA will support the event with workshops, technical resources, mentors and judges. More technology and application partners will be joining soon, bringing additional challenges, tools and prizes. Prizes will be awarded to standout projects across the main tracks and partner challenges.
