SUMMARY:DEADLINE: GreenSpark: GreenTech Hub Innovation Hackathon
DESCRIPTION:A Western Australian Innovation Hackathon exploring applications of AI in green technologies\nGreenTech Hub\, supported by Spacecubed and WA Data Science and Innovation Hub\, is launching the first GreenSpark Innovation Hackathon to develop green AI solutions in response to Western Australian industry challenges. \nGreenSpark is challenging participants to build practical AI tools that solve real industry problems in construction\, energy and industrial decarbonisation. WA industry have provided real-world use cases to solve\, and over the course of the program\, teams work directly with industry\, mentors and investors to take an idea from concept to working prototype. Not only does GreenSpark aim to spotlight high potential solutions throughout the hackathon and award prizes\, we want to identify who in the room has the ambition to commercialise their idea and and grow as innovators with a curated support structure for what comes next – and welcome to the GreenSpark cohort. This cohort has limited capacity\, so every participant gets real access to mentors\, sponsors and the people who can actually move their idea forward. Sign up today to reserve your spot! \nThis Hackathon is open to engineers\, developers\, data scientists\, researchers\, students\, founders and sustainability professionals. You don’t need a team to register\, we’ll help match you with one.Throughout the Hackathon\, you’ll build a working prototype alongside industry mentors and investors\, with the chance to win a share of $40\,000+ in cash prizes\, including $10\,000 for each of three finalist teams\, plus a pitching slot at West Tech Fest in December. Top teams also become part of the ongoing GreenTech cohort\, with curated support to the needs of your solution development; such as mentorship\, office hours\, access to the Plus Eight Accelerator bootcamp\, and more support to keep building through 2027 and beyond. \nKey dates  \n1 September | Registrations open\n14 October | Registrations close\n15 October\, 9am – 5pm | Launch Day\n16 October\, 9am to 5pm | Customer Validation Day\n23 October\, 1pm – 5pm | Q&A Customer Checkpoint\n30 October\, 1pm – 5pm | Pitch Day & Sundowner
