HackTown, a Brazilian festival of innovation, technology, creativity and new business, holds its 10th edition in Santa Rita do Sapucaí, in the South of Minas Gerais, between September 3 and 7. Known as the Electronics Valley, the city transforms its urban perimeter into a center for debates and connections during the five days of programming.

The event features the participation of more than 15 thousand people, including representatives from more than 500 companies, 100 confirmed startups and executives from global companies such as Nvidia, Google, Meta, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft and IBM.

The official opening takes place at Casa do Pi, with a celebration of the festival's ten years and its integration with the local ecosystem. Among the central themes of the 2026 program, the debates on Artificial Intelligence stand out, covering topics of governance, ethics, future of work and applications of technology.
