WA Health Hackathon Week 2021 will bring together a diverse group of data professionals, digital specialists and students to explore innovative digital and data-driven solutions to real world healthcare challenges.
This is your opportunity to take part in an exciting week of innovation! You can register as an individual or as a team of 2-6 participants.
During Hackathon Week, teams will create prototype solutions for specific healthcare challenges using techniques such as data analysis & visualisation, machine learning, predictive modelling, automation and digitisation. At the end of the week, each team will pitch their proof of concept or prototype to a judging panel of industry experts who will select the winning team based on viability, innovation and social impact.
There are some fantastic prizes to be won, including AWS sponsorship (details to be announced soon) and a one-on-one intensive med-tech workshop with Perth BioDesign directors!
