3.1: VPS Hack

An event will be conducted where VPS developers, designers and people with ideas gather to build apps using Victorian public sector data.

Other Information:

Hack events are where developers, designers and people with ideas gather to develop web and mobile applications. Hack days recognise that many cutting edge ideas come from haopening up boundaries and working across portfolios and areas of specialisation. They are underpinned by a philosophy of openness, sharing of ideas and collaboration. Following the success of the inaugural VPS Hack day in February 2010, the event will be held every six months, opening up public sector data to teams across the VPS and the local ICT industry to develop new applications and uses.
