- What is it about?
Nobody asks young people if they want to help. We do.
Vibe The Future starts from one simple observation: many social problems stay unsolved because nobody asks young people whether they want to help.
We give them space, agency and real problems to solve.
It's a product challenge, not a coding contest - although code can come in handy.
- What is Vibe?
Technology is the tool. People are at the centre.
It is
- An event built on real social problems brought by local institutions
- A space for students from every field, not only IT
- A place where the design approach matters more than the code
- A bridge between local institutions, business and students
- A chance to gain hands-on product experience
- An opportunity to get noticed in a local community of ambitious people
It is not
- Yet another coding marathon
- An event about technology for technology's sake
- A marketing stunt with no follow-up
- Who is it for?
For people who want to act, and for those who want to back them
Sponsors
- IT companies and business
- Universities and organisations
- Locally engaged brands
Projects that can come out of it: board games, social campaigns, marketing campaigns, concepts for new service businesses and much more.

Frequently asked questions
Who can take part?
Any adult who wants to create and act - not necessarily a student. If you have ideas and energy, you're welcome.
Do I need to know programming or IT?
No. We encourage cross-disciplinary teams because they broaden horizons and lead to more interesting solutions. IT skills open many doors, but not all of them.
Who organises the event?
The main organiser is CETUSPRO, as part of the Cetus Elevate initiative.
What should I bring?
Your own laptop, a charger and a bucket of coffee.
Is food and drink provided?
Yes. Meals, drinks and snacks are available throughout the event, so you can focus on building.
Is accommodation provided?
Yes, but remember to bring a sleeping bag, mat or blanket.
Can I switch teams during the event?
No - so think your team through before the start. It's part of the fun.
Will there be another edition?
As physicists say: the chance is non-zero. Follow our channels to hear first.
Who owns the rights to the project?
100% the authors of the solution.
We build systems for companies across industries - from marketplaces and online galleries to service platforms.
The next one can be yours.
