Helsinki Hackathon: Data & Visualization

Jussi Roine

<P><SPAN><STRONG>Helsinki Hackathon: Data &amp; Visualization</STRONG> is a hackathon event in Helsinki that concentrates on Microsoft solutions and cloud-based services. </SPAN><BR></P>
<P>The event is arranged with help from <A TARGET="_blank" HREF="http://www.onsight.fi/" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Onsight Helsinki</A></P>
<H2>About the event</H2>
<P>The hackathon is aimed for Excel-enthusiasts, Microsoft Power BI and SQL Server professionals, data scientists' and generally for people interested in building data visualizations using one or more tools from the Microsoft BI and data platform stack (Power BI, SQL Server, Excel etc.).</P>
<P>At the start of the hackathon you'll get a quick overview on what's out there, how to get started and how to use open data APIs to build visualizations and dashboards. You'll also get to spend an evening with people who love hacking, data and visualizing information! You don't want to miss this one!</P>
<P>The hackathon is about working in small teams, where you come up with an idea and start creating your visualization during the evening. At the end of the evening we'll showcase each team's solution. Best team or teams will win amazing prizes - more on those a bit later :) </P>
<H2>Pricing = it's free!</H2>
<P><STRONG>This event is free of charge</STRONG>, but spaces are very limited. The event is held in English.
