Join the APS 'Hackathon'

The Association for Project Safety together with Hack_Construct are looking to run a hackathon event in Manchester on 17-19 March. The first ever health and safety event of its kind: this is a chance to get together with digital technology experts over 3 days, to produce an actual or prototype solution to a real – world health and safety problem.  The event is free to attend and this jam packed event is one not to be missed.

So what is a hackathon?

A hackathon (also known as a hack day, hackfest or codefest) is a design sprint-like event in which computer programmers and others involved in software development including graphic designers, interface designers, project managers and other subject matter experts, collaborate intensively to solve real – world problems.

Why attend?

-          Be part of the first health and safety event of its kind
