Founded in 2014, HackZurich has grown to one of the largest and most renowned hackathons in Europe within a short period of time. Being in the middle of Europe, close to world-leading universities, HackZurich is characterized by an extraordinarily high quality of participants and a variety of national and international partners. 

Building on the last two years, we are once again offering you the possibility to join either in-person in Zurich or remotely from around the world. We are looking forward to bringing together over 1000 tech talents in an amazing atmosphere for a memorable and exciting weekend of coding. Join us for an unforgettable experience!
