With the purpose of promoting technological solutions for the country, the Venezuela Science and Technology Park +Science serves as the venue for the Uneti IA 2026 Hackathon, which brings together 124 students organized in 12 confirmed teams, with 62 participants in person and 57 in remote mode from different states of the country.

The initiative organized together with the National Experimental University of Telecommunications and Informatics (UNETI), the Venezuelan Chamber of Electronic Commerce (CAVECOM-E) and the National Fund for Science, Technology and Innovation (FONACIT), promotes the development of functional prototypes (MVP) aimed at solving strategic challenges in the public sector under two central axes: Ethical and Responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Cybersecurity.

In this regard, the president of the science park, Mattding Medina, highlighted the importance of promoting this type of event to attract the talent of universities in areas such as Artificial Intelligence and cybersecurity, with the objective of responding to strategic sectors of the country, including tourism, agriculture and productive development.

Throughout the day, technological experts from the public and private sectors provide direct support to university teams using cutting-edge tools and methodologies.

The projects address key areas for the country, such as algorithmic auditing platforms, administrative management systems, cybersecurity operations centers (SOC) and digital protection engines.

As part of this inter-institutional coordination, the winning and most outstanding proposals will receive the necessary support to formally apply for the national Innova Venezuela call, promoted by the Ministry of Science and Technology, thus integrating them with initiatives that transform the national technological ecosystem.
