The launch of Block-Sprint, the two week blockchain hackathon organised by UCL CBT and Ripple.

Join us for our first-ever Open Data Machine Learning Hackathon at Frequency Cafe & Co-working space at Kings Cross in London! During this hackathon, you will use open data from UK central government, London Datastore, the office of rail and road (ORR), Network Rail (NR), Transport for London (TfL), UK data service, NASA or even Kaggle.com to develop and deploy machine learning models that can be used to predict, classify and forecast insightful trends or automate repetitive tasks.  Attendees can pitch ideas and form teams around them. Teams can then work on developing, training and deploying ML models on the cloud that can be used for inference. Spaces for this hackathon are limited.
