GovHack registration still open

Register for this weekend's open data hackathon.

It is not too late to register for this year's GovHack competition taking place this Friday 19 August to Sunday 21 August, with events being held in person across Australia, New Zealand, and online.

Over the course of the weekend, teams will be challenged to develop solutions using publicly available government data.

The event is an absolute must for anyone passionate about data, data-led service, policy design, or exploring ideas on how to better deliver government services.

As a sponsor of the event, the National Freight Data Hub has contributed two challenges to the competition using its catalogue of freight data under the challenge theme—better use of government data.

Visit the GovHack website for more information.
