Join us for a hackathon at the HiVE in Vancouver on January 26, 2019 from 9:00am to 4:00pm. Help us develop a creative solution to solve one of today’s mining challenges and shape Canada’s future as the leading mining nation!
Teck, the Mining Industry Human Resources Council, and the Canadian Minerals and Metals Plan at Natural Resources Canada invite you to participate in the Digging Deep Hackathon: Vancouver Edition!
This is a chance for students to network with industry experts and peers, learn more about the dynamic and exciting minerals sector, and demonstrate their analytical and creative abilities.
The Government of Canada, in partnership with the provinces and territories, is developing the Canadian Minerals and Metals Plan. This generational initiative will lay the foundation for lasting success for the Canadian mining sector both at home and abroad. Your solutions could help influence future actions taken under the Plan.
Teams of four from universities across British Columbia will be presented with a problem and will have one day to generate and pitch a solution to a panel of judges. No technical expertise and knowledge required.
A prize will be awarded to the team that develops the most innovative and tangible solution.
The cost of public transportation to and from the event will be covered by Natural Resources Canada. Food during the event with also be provided.
