HACK CQ - Think Outside the Box
Join CHDC and River City Labs for Central Highlands’ first-ever hackathon: 54 hours over one fun-filled, action-packed weekend where you get the chance to pitch, brainstorm and develop business plans that launch real, working startups. You bring your enthusiasm and a laptop, and we’ll supply the mentors, knowledge, and fuel to keep you powering through the weekend.
You must be passionate about technology and solving problems. You must be able to collaborate with like-minded individuals and mentors. You must be focussed on education, action, and innovation.
HACKCQ will provide the environment in which you can test ideas and take the first steps towards launching your own startup by getting feedback on concepts and linking you up with business founders, specific skill sets, or a team to help you execute a high-growth business plan.
We are going to be looking at how technology aids service provision and growth in four key areas:
Resources
Agriculture
Advanced manufacturing
Environment
The event is made possible thanks to the support of the Local Buying Foundation, Central Highlands Development Corporation and River City Labs.
