List of hackathons in Port Hedland, Australia in 2018

What is a Hackathon? A hackathon is a fast paced problem solving event, typically lasting a couple of days in which a large number of people meet to engage in collaborative problem solving across disciplines, interests and skills. We will have around 80 students, who, in small teams will tackle a few problem statements provided in advance. The students will work on the idea across the Thursday, and on Friday will pitch the idea to their peers, and industry judges. Who can attend?
