AI NEXT-GEN HACKATHON: Would you like to spend a day with us imagining the future of the Motor Valley with Generative AI and BIM?

We'd be delighted to host you here at Archilinea for the AI Next-Gen Hackathon!

We designed this event as a day to spend together experimenting, getting to know each other and building teams. If you're a university student, a recent graduate or a young professional, we invite you to work side by side with our R&D team to explore the industrial architecture of the future.

What will we do together?

We'll take on a real case from our local area: we'll imagine an Integrated Industrial Compound that brings together a Factory, Headquarters and a Vertical Warehouse. You can choose to have fun with one of two focus areas: Landmark: Imagine the "skin" of the Vertical Warehouse and its lighting, turning it into a visual point of reference. Brand: Find a way to merge architecture with brand identity, harmoniously uniting the different spaces.

Zero stress about the tools

We've got you covered! You don't need to be an absolute expert, as we'll be there to support you: We'll work with Graphisoft ArchiCAD, and our tutors will always be available to give you a hand. You can experiment freely with the Generative AI tools you prefer (and we'll provide the credits for the resources needed for modeling!).

Why come and visit us?

Informal networking: It will be a great opportunity to get to know our team and industry professionals (friends and colleagues from Modula, THE PLAN and Graphisoft will be with us). Final prize: To reward your hard work, the 1st-place team will receive a prize of €3,000 in technology and tools for BIM and AI design.

When and where?

Saturday, November 14, 2026, in Sassuolo (MO), Italy. We'll welcome you right at our home, at the Archilinea headquarters. Our travel companions: The event is held in collaboration with Graphisoft, Modula, THE PLAN, Confindustria Ceramica and the School of Engineering and Architecture of the University of Bologna.

How to join us?

We'll be an intimate group (about 10–12 teams, for a total of 50 participants), so that we can follow and get to know each of you as well as possible! Send us your application by writing to: eventi@archilinea.it
