Verda Watch posted an update
Verda says every team at Junction 2026 will receive credits for its cloud platform, including access to GPU clusters and an inference API using Kimi K3.1 Pro.
Why it mattersThe company is sponsoring the AI Infrastructure Track at the Espoo hackathon, running 13–15 November. Its “Best use of Verda” challenge offers €10,000 in cloud credits to the winner, with €2,500 for each of the next two teams. That gives participants compute to try AI projects without paying upfront, though the prizes are platform credits rather than cash.
Discuss: Should hackathon sponsors offer credits tied to their own services, or would cash prizes give teams more useful freedom?
