<h2>The 2nd CASSINI Hackathon: Connecting the Arctic is here ⚡</h2><h2> </h2>Dive into some of the critical challenges faced in the Arctic region. This fascinating and complex geographical, meteorological and biological ecosystem needs your help! We&rsquo;ve assembled problem solvers from across Europe to develop sustainable solutions that support the Arctic&rsquo;s future. Follow the projects tab from 5-7 November to see how the ideas are developing then join us on 10 November at 18:00 CET as the top 10 teams pitch for the top spots at our Demo Day &amp; Awards Ceremony. The hackathon is open to anyone with a passion for entrepreneurship, the Arctic and EU space technologies. Check out our three challenges* below and consider how you can use your knowledge and skills to protect and support this precious region: <h3>Challenge #1:&nbsp;Safe passage at sea</h3> Design products, devices or services that enable container ships, cruise liners and fishing trawlers to navigate safely across our Nordic Seas. If you choose this challenge, you&rsquo;ll be encouraged to dive into the areas of navigation route optimisation, extreme weather and sea ice warnings, the development and connectivity of future shipping lanes, and environmental disaster and emergency management.<h3> </h3><h3>Challenge #2: Life on Land</h3> Design products, devices or services that enable human societies, plants and wildlife to better adapt to the Arctic climate. If you choose this challenge, you&rsquo;ll be encouraged to explore topics such as environmental monitoring and climate change mitigation, renewable energy advancements, environmental protection, and the improved connectivity for research stations in remote areas.<h3> </h3><h3>Challenge #3: Caring for our wildlife</h3> Design products, devices or services that can help protect biodiversity and the natural habitat of wildlife in the Arctic.
