Venture UWA is teaming up with United Exports to run Hack the Harvest, a hackathon that’s nothing like the ones you’ve probably heard about before.
Using a human centred design thinking approach students will head out to a working blueberry farm, meet the people who run it, and get a behind-the-scenes look at how one of Australia’s leading blueberry businesses operates. You’ll hear about the real challenges the farm is facing, then spend the weekend turning those challenges into ideas and solutions alongside students from all kinds of degrees.
There’ll be mentors from start-ups, academia, agriculture and industry helping teams along the way, and students will get to experiment with AI, drones, robotics and other emerging tech before pitching their ideas on the final night.
Everything is covered, including transport from UWA, all meals across the weekend, mentors, workshops and plenty of opportunities to meet founders, industry leaders and other students.
Prize: shared prize pool of $5000
Application deadline: Tuesday 11th August
Event dates: Friday 14th - Monday 17th August
Open to all disciplines!
