Glasgow Hackathon Success
A team of 2nd and 3rd year students from Glasgow Computing Science spent two days participating in a hackathon about future cities. Various scottish agencies provided data which the team used to develop a prototype of a public service communication platform to support short, concise, geographic and demographically targeted public service announcements through mobile phone communications. The team won first prize at the Public Safety themed #hackglasgow event held on 22nd and 23rd February 2014.
Congratulations to the MSGlasgow team (left to right in the picture), Steven Boca (3rd year), George Popa (2nd year), Maksim Solovjov (3rd year), Joshua McGhee (3rd year, team leader), Reinis Elksnis (3rd year), Daniel Tsvetkov (3rd year), Keir Smith (3rd year), Rrobi Szkokan (3rd year), Edvin Malinovskis (3rd year), Marin Georgiev (3rd year).
