<LI>Details : The event will start with 5 minute pitches of project ideas. These can be personal projects, interesting challenges, open source projects or anything else that you would like to share. The only requirement is that these are primarily coding based projects. Anyone can sign up for a slot on the day. Audience will vote for the projects they are interested in and groups of 4-5 formed to work on projects. The day will conclude with 5 minute presentations of achievements. We will make sure there is a variety of projects to cater to people of different abilities so even if you only have a basic grasp of programming then don’t be afraid to come.</LI>

Pitching a project : Pitchers should come prepared to describe the aims of their project, why it is interesting / benefits the community and technical pre-requisites (e.g. experience with AWS, web scraping, basic Python, advanced R etc). Smaller projects that can be completed in a day preferred. Larger projects should have milestones that can be completed in a day. Pitches and final presentations will be made available following the event so only present what you are happy to be made public.

Food / drink : Only water, coffee and snacks are provided. Attendees can order their own food to the venue, take a break to find a restaurant in Kennedy Town or bring their own lunch.
