Welcome to the Orange Network APIs Hackathon 2025

Get ready to leverage Orange APIs to empower trusted customer experience and industry 4.0 flexibility.

Do you have a product or idea that could transform the future of telecom, data, or industry? The Orange Network APIs Hackathon is built for developers, startups, and tech professionals ready to experiment, build, and scale with purpose. Whether you’re bringing a bold new concept or looking to supercharge an existing solution, this is your chance to harness Orange’s powerful Network APIs and prototype high-impact solutions across three key themes: Customer Experience, Trusted Data, and Industry 4.0. With mentorship, technical support, and the opportunity to gain visibility on a global stage, it’s the perfect space to push boundaries and shape what’s next in connectivity.

Calling for developers, startups, and tech professionals!

To prepare for the upcoming deployment of the Network APIs in Orange's production networks, be among the first to experiment with these innovative APIs during our exciting hackathon. 

Whether you're bringing a bold new concept or looking to supercharge an existing solution, the Orange Network APIs Hackathon is your chance to prototype, compete, and win by building solutions around the theme:

- Customer Experience: Rethink how people interact with services and technology.

- Trusted Data: Prioritize transparency, privacy, and ethical use of data.

- Industry 4.0: Reinvent connected industries using automation, IoT, and real-time intelligence.

You’ll soon receive detailed use cases and example APIs aligned with each theme to help guide your project (coming soon).

Gain valuable feedback from mentors and executives while connecting with developers, startups, and ecosystem partners.

Top teams may earn the opportunity to showcase at major global events like MWC Barcelona or VivaTech Paris.

Selected projects can be tested and refined in Orange’s cutting-edge 5G Lab environment.

Work directly with technical and business experts to seamlessly integrate our Network APIs into your prototype.

Personalized support will be offered based on the maturity of your project to the finalist teams, including go-to-market strategies and integration on the Orange production network.

Innovators eager to transform their industry through advanced telecommunications technologies.

Startups and entrepreneurs interested in programmable network features.

Developers passionate about creating scalable solutions using Network APIs.

The three finalist teams will be invited to operationalize their prototype in our Orange 5G Lab with support from Orange experts and mentors. 

The Competition is endowed with the following prizes:

1st prize

Individual passes for the Mobile World Congress 26 Barcelona

2nd prize

3 Individual passes

for VivaTech26

3rd prize

The three teams will be invited to a test session in Orange 5G Lab with support from Orange experts and mentors to operationalize their prototype.

Imagine having direct access to telecom network capabilities—something that was previously only available to operators. With Orange Network APIs, developed under the CAMARA open-source project, developers can now enhance app performance, improve security, and unlock new possibilities, all without complex integrations. From real-time fraud detection to optimizing network quality for critical applications.

Network APIs offer:

Interoperability

Allowing developers to easily deploy their solution between different operators and different geographies.

Network resources access

Allowing developers to access network functionalities, such as quality of service management, resource configuration and performance monitoring.

Modularity

Offering modular components that can be easily integrated into existing systems, promoting rapid innovation.

Simplicity 

Enabling seamless integration of advanced network features with APIs designed for ease of use, reducing telco complexity. 

Digital services support

Facilitating the development of new digital services, by integrating advanced capabilities such as AI and data analysis.
