AI Build Day: From Real Problem to Working Solution

As a part of Gothenburg Tech Week 2026: A hands-on hackathon for turning real business challenges into practical AI-powered solutions.

The idea is simple. Participating companies bring a real challenge from their own organisation and work towards a practical solution together with builders, mentors and other problem-solvers. Not technology for its own sake, but something useful, testable and relevant to the people who will use it.

Whether you are building AI systems, shaping AI strategy, or your company feels stuck in a problem you haven't been able to solve yet — this day is for you.

During the day you will:

• Frame a real problem and find where AI actually creates value

• Build and test a prototype with support from mentors and facilitators

• Stress-test the idea from a business, security and implementation perspective

• Show your solution to the room and learn from the other teams

Conversations, connections and collaborations that drive real impact. That's what we're here for — and no email or digital meeting is ever going to replace a handshake.
