Tech-X Hackathon #7

Gaia-X Hackathon #7 will take place on Thursday, 23 May and Friday, May 24 at the European Convention Center of Luxembourg.

🧑‍💻 Get ready for an engaging start to the hackathon with a technical crash course on Gaia-X! This session includes interactive demos led by participants and support from our CTO team, designed to equip you with the essentials of Gaia-X. No prior knowledge is required as we’ll guide you through everything you need to know right at the beginning of the event. All you need is a running Python environment to run a Jupyter Notebook and, if possible, an SSL certificate and its private key. Don’t miss this opportunity to kickstart your Gaia-X journey!
