Making Canberra Collaborative

Greetings from the launch of GovHack 2014 at Entry 29 in Canberra. This started with the "Govhack 2014 Opening Video", with Pia Waugh as a newsreader, introducing "Mal" (Malcolm Turnbull, Minister for Communications). The minister cited the case of a new App which displays dollar savings from efficient household appliances, rather than just displaying energy savings. Teams will spend the weekend at GovHack preparing applications using data provided by federal, state and local governments across Australia. The completion a range of Prizes, Locations and videos about GovHack.
