During the event all participants will be presented with a choice of three challenge tracks.  You will have time on Saturday morning to decide what track you want to take as a group or individual.  You will then try to find other team members during morning events and join them on developing an idea for that track over the 2 days of the hackathon.  In order to prepare in advance we have curated this research starter to inspire you.

Also if we talk about artefact building there is open source project MIT too.
