​The Open Accelerator is kicking off 2026 with the first of a monthly hackathon series. Red Hat and IBM are hosting a unique, in-person, one-day hackathon in Boston’s Seaport District, designed to help you rapidly prototype and build production-ready AI applications using our open source templates. We put AI tools, that are ready for the enterprise, into the hands of participants for them to build. The goal is to accelerate knowledge and help you solve real world problems.
