The 3rd annual Veeam Community Hackathon will start on Dec. 2, 2025, at 15:00 CEST/9:00 AM EST.
- Teams of 12-18 will work together and consist of people from all over the world, with the ultimate goal of bringing the world together.
- The teams should make the life of an end-user easier by creating a complementary product to one of the existing Veeam products.
- An example of this would be Jorge’s Grafana dashboards. There is no requirement for a tech stack or tools used.
