Co-op Hackathon

About the event

The Co‑op Hackathon will take place on 1‑2 October 2024 in Staffordshire. It’s for co‑operators passionate about creating joined‑up digital infrastructure for the co‑op movement.  This is organised by Co-ops UK.

Our first step was to bring people together at Co‑op Congress in June for a dynamic and highly productive Hackathon Round Table. Next, we’ll further develop the ideas with online sessions to design the October hackathon.
