ABSTRACT:
Pia Waugh was an organiser for GovHack, a recent 48 hour developer event where over 40 projects were created from scratch around the themes of science, digital humanities and open government. Pia will talk about the event, how it worked, the outcomes and what it demonstrates about the value of public data being publicly available, the opportunities for science communications, and the innovation that results from collaboration across government, science, technology and civil society.
