The
Unearthed Sydney Hackathon is back on again this weekend with 4 big
data challenges from the Australian mining and resources sector.
South32,
Newcrest and the NSW Dept of Industry are hosting large sets of data
for 54 hours at Unearthed, providing a great opportunity for motivated
entrepreneurs, data scientists and software developers to build a real
world solution.
At Unearthed we work closely with industry on
understanding what challenges they are facing in the years ahead. With
our knowledge of the sector and passion to connect their problems to new
solutions developed by entrepreneurs and innovators in Australia's
startup community, we have hosted almost 1000 participants at what will
be 11 events after this weekend's Sydney Hackathon.
This
weekend's Sydney event will be no different from others. Lots of prizes
are on offer and as usual - all teams retain 100% of the IP they create
at Unearthed. Meaning that whatever project you work on is yours to
continue working on and perhaps turn into a startup itself or sell back
to one of the companies. Unearthed has previously spun out startups and
had several teams gain contracted (or other) work out of the hackathon
events.
This is a great opportunity for anyone with a passion
for the mining and resources sector, but even greater - with a passion
for big data.
