Now the fun really starts! We’d like to invite you to participate in TransportHack, the two-day creative problem-solving event being hosted by the Transport Portfolio and Ministry of Data.

Not technology-minded? That’s okay – we often find that the best ideas come from those who can look through a different lens. You have just as much to offer.

Not part of a team? That fine – a lot of people join hackathons ever year not starting off in a team. On the Friday night, we will help you find a team and meet some really interesting people.
