AN Australia-wide competition to encourage technology experts and coders to hack government data and create useful apps for Sunshine Coast residents has been launched.
Hackfest 2015 will be a three-day collaboration between data analysts, entrepreneurs, storytellers, digital creative professionals and coders, on November 20 to 22.
The Sunshine Coast Council event will see the smartest digital minds converge on SPARK BUREAU at Ocean St, Maroochydore, and “play” with government data to create apps, visualisations, websites and tools with information about the Sunshine Coast provided by local, state and federal governments.
Under the theme of “Hacking for a smarter region”, hackers will be tasked with creating a solution for an issue or problem on the Coast, whether it is now or in the future. For the full article click here
