"Hackathon: an integration of the words hack and marathon, is traditionally an event in which a large number of people meet to engage in collaborative computer programming."
Under the guidance of our experts, you will have access to our data and APIs (Application
Programming Interfaces) with a challenge to communicate science and achievements.
This FREE event takes places in the magnificent grounds of the Royal Agricultural University,
in the
heart of the beautiful Cotswolds.
Whether you are a developer, designer, project manager, branding/marketing expert, or something else
entirely, you are welcome to this event, either as a team or join a team on the day. This is an
opportunity to network with people in the field of bioscience, agriculture and application
development and learn new skills.
Additionally, we will be rewarding the best teams with prizes!
Spaces are available on first come - first served basis and early booking is advisable.
