TALK TO ME, BERLIN! is a hackathon for natural language interfaces organized by Voice enthusiasts, if you are curious about voice assistants everyone seems to be talking about - this event is for you.

 During the non-profit event, participants will form groups and learn to prototype natural language interfaces for real world applications on Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.

Bring your insights, creativity, ideas, problems and laptop. Food, caffeine (and other beverages), home devices and other essentials will be there waiting for you. Don’t have a team and/or idea yet? No worries! On the first night you can get to know your fellow competitors and possible future teammates and hammer out your ideas. Of course you are also welcome to bring your idea and team ready to go.

The hackathon takes place over a three day course from June 14th - 16th.
