Welcome to the AWS Agentic AI Hackathon 2025
Capgemini and AWS are thrilled to launch the third edition of our global virtual hackathon series — this time spotlighting the transformative potential of Agentic AI.
We're calling all innovators across Capgemini's global ecosystem to design and build real-world MVPs that address high-impact business challenges sourced directly from our clients. The most compelling solutions may even be selected for post-hackathon pilots in client environments.
This is your chance to experiment with the latest Agentic AI tools from AWS (more details coming soon) — and explore how autonomous AI agents can amplify human problem-solving at scale.
Join us, and discover what happens when cutting-edge AI meets enterprise innovation.
