Datastart: a high level government open-data initiative

Department of Premier and Cabinet announce a public-private partnership to support data-driven innovation in Australia.

‘The winning startup will be decided through a competitive selection process, culminating in a showcase event on 18 January 2016. Shortlisted applicants will pitch their ideas to a panel of judges from government, industry and investment organisations, with their ideas judged on criteria such as the level of innovation and commercial viability. The successful startup will be incubated from concept to delivery as part of the nine month Pollenizer Success Core Program.’ (APO, 1 Nov 2015)
