Greetings from the"ACET Zero-Emission-Transport Hackathon, run by the Canberra Innovation Network (CBRIN) at the University of Canberra today. I am here to mentor teams, but ironically, I missed the bus on the way here this morning. On a positive note, I told some of the teams about this, and they are working on a solution. The teams have until this afternoon to come up with an idea and pitch it for a share in $10,000. I just slipped out for a coffee at UoC's innovation center next door and saw it is still the office of Instaclustr, a Canberra startup success story.
CBRIN staff are taking the teams through the standard ideation process. This is a key skill which most students miss out on. They may know how to implement something, but not what the customer needs.
