Dear Students and Alumni,
Come and join us for the event below. We look forward to meeting you and hear how 2016 was for you.
Civic Hacking and GovHack + ASA WA Branch & Curtin Alumni Christmas Party!
The Australian tech community is always on the lookout for a cool new challenge - and a lot of their recent attention has been on how to open up the libraries and archives of Australia. Come along to the last meeting for ASA in 2016 to hear about how you can jump on this wave of innovative, entrepreneurial energy and have some of the best tech minds of Australia focus on solving your problems. Tim Sondalini, State Manager of GovHack WA, will talk to us about the process of opening up your data; some of the awesome things people have done with Open Data and how GovHack might be the place for you to get involved!
Then wind down the year in the spirit of Christmas whilst exploring what datasets you can offer for future GovHacks with your peers.
Speaker: Tim Sondalini has helped organise GovHack (Australia's premier Open Data hackathon) in WA for the last four years. This year, as State Manager, Tim assisted a number of organisations open up their data. In his professional life, Tim is an analytics professional with Deloitte Consulting.
