Welcome to the Gemma 4 Hackathon Sprint, a fast-paced, 1-day in-person hackathon where you'll get hands-on with the most capable open models from Google DeepMind. This hackathon is not about writing polished, production-ready code. It is a sprint to experiment, learn, break things, and build great solutions to real-world problems in just a few hours.

This hackathon is not about writing polished, production-ready code. It is a sprint to experiment, learn, break things, and build great solutions to real-world problems in just a few hours. You have access to the newly released Gemma 4 models. Team up, brainstorm a wild idea, hack a prototype, and pitch before the clock runs out. Bring your laptop, your boldest ideas, and let's build something amazing together!
