Hello Sagar + Others,

*What happened? *The data was not open since it is real transaction /
customer data. In fact, we had to postpone the Hackathon due to security
issues.

*Good news! *The security issues / processes are finally fixed.

*Date/Time: *

   - 6th or 7th May (90 minutes): Orientation webinar
      - Sample DB will be shared 2-3 hours prior to the webinar, so that
      participant can analyze the database structure and schema.
      - During the webinar, they will walk through: a) 10 minutes on the
      data schema b) Process walkthrough c) Current state of the data d)
      Participants questions based on sample DB shared with them earlier e) Q&A
      session
      - The session will be primarily used to confirm goals, deliverable
      and technology parameters, identify potential user challenges, wants and
      needs.
   - May 9, 10: Hackathon
   - May 15: Presentation to corporate partner via Skype

*Security:*

   - Participants need to sign a self-declaration on data security and time
   commitment.
   - Participants will be provided data over a DB server connection
   (Oracle) and App Servers. These servers will be exposed to only Zone
   Startups IP address.
   - Participants cannot download / take backup of the data.

*Awards:*

   - First prize: Rs. 1 Lakh
   - Second prize: Rs. 50,000
   - If insights are found useful, the corporate partner can chose to
   engage long term for a full scale commercial project.
