New Horizons: AI Innovation for Public Sector - AWS Hackathon Munich | AWS Public Sector

Описание: In February 2025, the AWS New Horizons AI Innovation Hackathon brought together 80 tech talents from 14 countries in Munich. Participants developed innovative AI solutions for the public sector in Germany. In collaboration with AWS Tech Alliance, Public Sector Innovation Programs, and AWS re:Start, international teams worked on challenges in "AI for Good," "AI for Utilities," and "AI for Government."

Notable organizations including the German Red Cross, Caritas, City of Munich, and Federal Network Agency presented real-world challenges. Participants qualified through a Coursera course on digital product development, developed by AWS and Technical University of Munich.

The winning team "Hello Helpers" developed an AI-based solution for the German Foundation for Engagement and Volunteering (DSEE) to better support 28 million volunteers in Germany. Under the patronage of Dr. Fabian Mehring, Bavarian State Minister for Digital Affairs, the hackathon demonstrated the potential of cloud computing and AI to improve public services.

Teams utilized innovative tools like PartyRock, an Amazon Bedrock playground for generative AI applications, and AWS Workshop Studio for collaborative work. Projects ranged from improving citizen services to optimizing interpreter services for asylum seekers and modernizing logistics systems for food banks.

Additionally, five scholarships from UnternehmerTUM's Digital Product School were awarded to particularly innovative participants. The recipients will develop further digital innovations in a three-month intensive program.
