2017 HunterHackFest Event Hubs

As part of our plans to go bigger in 2017, we're designing an event that can be run simultaneously across more than 1 location, so we can bring together teams from around the Hunter into Event Hubs that are Convenient, Connected, Collaborative and Convivial. C what we mean?

If you're in a location that you would like to have participating in our 2017 Challenge categories, we're keen to work with you. Let's start the ball rolling with a phone call to our Event Host, Brian Hill, on 0414 430 450.

What you'll need

  1. First, read the FAQ's and get an understanding of what's involved in the event model;
  2. A space that can host a range of teams. Even better if you have Plan A, Plan B spaces to cater for different event sizes if you find yourself stretched for space;
  3. Access to good food and catering - event attendees get thirsty / hungry with all that hard thinking - this is a chance to show off your regional providores and cuisine (yes, we post to Instagram during the event);
  4. Connectivity - we're building stuff on the internet after all, as well as live streaming across our event sites, so make sure it's good +reliable (yes, we understand the difficulties involved in that - you have our sympathies);
  5. Close to accomodation - you might find you get some out of area attendees looking to weave their experience into a Hunter based weekend travel experience. If you can secure some great accommodation packages with local operators, it's a win-win;
  6. A large display wall to project onto + projector - we want to ensure our teams remain connected through the experience, with live streams running through the event.

Location

We're in re-scheduling mode at the moment, with venue details to be confirmed with the release of our new event date.
