FME Hackathon 2017

General information
We believe that an industry association of the future should accelerate cooperation between companies and stakeholders to find (technological) solutions for global challenges. We also believe that we can only create impact if we provide a state of the art, data-driven matchmaking and knowledge platform. We want to provide our members with added value coming from data. Data from our own sources and those available on the web.
Are you interested in emerging technologies, can you think out of the box, can you imagine the impact of a data-driven tool and are you willing to spend a few days creating a breakthrough solution? Then join us in our hackathon!
