Build maritime tech in San Francisco: 48-hour hackathon, October 16–18

22 Sep 2026

Anyone here in the Bay Area interested in putting their hardware and software skills to work on maritime problems?

I’m Filippo from Silicon Mtn, one of the organizers of the Maritime Dual-Use Hackathon in San Francisco, October 16–18, 2026. It’s a 48-hour build with three challenges:

  • Software-Defined Vessel

  • Piping Layout Optimization

  • OT Cybersecurity & Blast Radius Analysis

We’re organizing it with Fincantieri, Fincantieri Marine Group and Mind the Bridge, with Qualcomm and Arduino as main technology sponsors.

Each member of the winning team receives a Qualcomm-powered laptop. For those interested in continuing afterwards:

  • Venture Track — selective access to six weeks of free acceleration with Fincantieri.

  • Scouting Track — an opt-in path offering access to partners’ hiring processes.

If you enjoy building, testing and making things work, take a look. You can apply solo or with a team of up to five.

View the challenges and apply

Happy to answer questions here.

    This is a page for a project competition that ends Sept 27.  I think he was just suggesting that there might be a more appropriate place for this post.  Maybe the Members Forum.  cstanton  should be able to move it for you.
