This event is a part of our House of Sovereignty program during GTC Berlin. Enterprise teams run on the Haystack Enterprise Platform (HEP) today. For one evening, we're opening it up to builders directly. Come see the whole Haystack ecosystem, from open source to platform, and take on the task on the platform. The task: build the fastest, most accurate Haystack pipeline, deploy it to the platform, and score as high as you can on the test dataset. We'll provide the data and starter template. You'll get the full brief at 18:20. Scoring is objective; every submission goes on the leaderboard, and the top score wins 🏅 Bring a laptop. We'll provide everything else: wifi, API keys, a desk, food, drinks, and good conversations. Mentors are in the room all evening to help you along the way and answer your questions. ⭐️ Your platform access stays open for a week afterward, so you can finish what you started, or work on something of your own and see how it holds up. 🗓️ Agenda 18:00 – 18:20 Arrival, food & drinks 🥙🍹 18:20 – 18:45 Welcome + challenge briefings 18:45 – 20:45 Hack session - build with mentors 20:45 – 21:00 Leaderboard reveal & Prize ceremony 🏆 21:00 - Networking 🎂 👥 Who is This Event For?
