<p style="font-size: 16px;font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;font-weight: normal;color: #222222; line-height: 1.5 !important;">The CINECA GPU Hackathon is a digital event, and it will be held on 30 June 2026 and on July 06-07-08 2026.<br>The Application Deadline is 16 April 2026.</p>

<p style="font-size: 16px;font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;font-weight: normal;color: #222222; line-height: 1.5 !important;">CINECA GPU Hackathons provide exciting opportunities for scientists to accelerate their HPC codes or AI research under the guidance of expert mentors from National Labs, Universities and Industry leaders in a collaborative environment.</p>

<p style="font-size: 16px;font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;font-weight: normal;color: #222222; line-height: 1.5 !important;">The CINECA GPU Hackathon is a virtual multi-day coding event designed to help teams to port their own codes on GPUs using a programming model, or machine learning framework of their choice. Each team consists of two or more developers who are intimately familiar with their application, and they work alongside mentors with GPU programming expertise.</p>

<p style="font-size: 16px;font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;font-weight: normal;color: #222222; line-height: 1.5 !important;">Participating in a GPU hackathon provides a unique opportunity for teams to jumpstart acceleration or optimization of their code on GPUs. With the help of experienced mentors, by the end of the event each team should have their code running on GPUs, or at least have a clear roadmap of how to get there.</p>
