From the OpeNER project we are inviting coders, linguists and (product) designers to join us for a one day Hackathon around Natural Language Technology and Text Mining large datasets (e.g. Sentiment analysis, Named Entity Recognition).

There’s a large collection of state of the art webservices, datasets and APIs available of which all “core” developers are present to help you get started.

This is your chance to kickstart your next big idea, see if the technology can help your research or your company,

… or simply enjoy the newest of the newest in language technology for a day.
