🇫🇷 For the first time in Europe, private AI agents meet sovereign French State data. Build an autonomous AI agent that solves a REAL business problem — using the most advanced agentic stack of 2026 — in just 90 minutes.
This isn't a student hackathon. This is the arena.
🎯 The Challenge
From idea to functional prototype in 90 minutes flat. You pick the use case and you ship.
Mandatory Stack:
🔧 Google ADK — Agent Development Kit for multi-tool agent orchestration🚀 Cloud Run — Deploy your agent fast, serverless, and production-ready🧠 Gemma 4 (Optional) — Open model capabilities for sovereign and agentic use cases 🖥️ Antigravity IDE — Google’s Agent-First IDE⚡ Gemini CLI — Raw power, command-line speed🏛️ National MCPs — Official French State data sources and MCP servers
🇫🇷 Why "Sovereign"?
The French government has opened its data — DPE, land registry, taxation, public procurement — via MCP servers that your AI agents can query in real time. This hackathon is the first event ever to bridge private agents with sovereign State data. A European answer to closed US ecosystems.
💡 Example Use Cases
🏠 Thermal Renovation Audit Agent — Exploit DPE + cadastral data to analyze renovation potential💰 Tax Compliance Assistant for SMEs — Automate regulatory monitoring via MCP Tax servers🚛 Route Optimizer — Leverage territorial data for smarter delivery routes📋 Public Procurement Decision Support — Identify opportunities from digital procurement data

👥Team Setup
Participants will build in teams. To prepare the cloud environment properly, we will collect team compositions before the event.
You can either:
Come with a pre-formed teamJoin a team on-siteCome solo and get matched with other builders before the hack session starts
Recommended team size: up to 5 people.
⚠️ Prerequisites — Come Prepared!
Set up your environment on your machine BEFORE you arrive:
Install Antigravity IDE → antigravity.googleInstall Gemini CLI → geminicli.com/docsExplore MCP Data.gouv datasets → data.gouv.fr/datasets
Unprepared participants will lose precious hack time.
Google Technical Support & Credits
Thanks to Google, every participant will get access to dedicated technical resources for the hackathon:
Temporary Google Cloud accounts with generous quotas for the evening, designed to let teams build and deploy without setup friction$10 Google Cloud credits per participant, requiring a Gmail account, so you can keep a personal workspace and continue working on your prototype after the eventA lightning introduction by Google covering Cloud Run, ADK, Gemma 4, AI Studio, Gemini CLI, and Antigravity
This means you will not just prototype locally: you will be able to build, deploy, and demo an actual agentic application using Google’s latest AI and cloud stack.
In addition, the winning team will receive a $500 prize, awarded to the best sovereign AI agent prototype of the night.
📋 Practical Info
📅 April 29, 2026📍 Paris🎟️ 50 spots only — Registration required🎯 For: AI Experts, Builders, CTOs, AI Engineers
🚨 Selection Criteria
We're looking for profiles who can:✅ Deploy AI agents in production within 48h✅ Understand multi-tool orchestration (ADK, MCP)✅ Identify real business problems and solve them
If you want a calm hackathon with step-by-step tutorials, this is not for you.If you want to prove you can master the most advanced AI stack of 2026 and deliver an exploitable agent in 90 minutes — welcome to the arena.
