About Challenge

HATCH Dimension X Cohort 5

Dimension X is a global open innovation challenge by Hatch that accelerates and validates technologies with dual-use potential in public safety and security.

Our programme is open to applications from start-ups across all industry sectors, countries and funding stages. Start-ups will receive funding opportunities and collaborate with operational and technical experts from Home Team end-users and HTX respectively.

Our fifth run of Dimension X centers around two core themes: enhance existing capabilities using AI and explore new possibilities with AI. At the same time, we also welcome all other cool technologies that can address the challenge statements below.
