AI Hackathon II - Recap

May 10th, 2025 at The Beacon, Antwerp

Augmenting Antwerp with AI 🤖

The second North Star Agentic Hackathon brought together developers and AI enthusiasts to explore how artificial intelligence can enhance urban experiences. Teams tackled the challenge of augmenting Antwerp with intelligent, location-aware applications that bridge the digital and physical worlds.

Over the course of the hackathon, participants delivered creative solutions ranging from gamified city exploration to AI-powered tour guides. The energy was high, and by the end of the day, we had successfully depleted our pizza supplies—a reliable indicator of a well-attended event.

Congratulations to Our Winners! 🏆
