PILOT N8CIR-WHPC Tech Triaging Workshop

Are you a technologist, developer, data scientist, engineer, or researcher who enjoys solving real‑world technical challenges?

Join us for the PILOT N8CIR-WHPC Tech Triaging Workshop, an applied problem‑solving session where experts collaborate to unpack and roadmap an early‑stage technical challenge brought by an innovator. This interactive format—adapted from successful triage models used in the mathematical science communities—offers an intellectually stimulating way to contribute your expertise in an area that’s (probably) different from your day job.

Why Attend?

• Engage with a real technical challenge: Help an innovator clarify architecture, feasibility, and early development pathways.
• Apply your expertise for social good: The featured challenge focuses on accessibility and inclusive design.
• Learn from peers: Work alongside specialists across disciplines
• Support ethical innovation: Clear rules of engagement ensure boundaries around IP, labour, and consultancy. Please note that the spirit of the workshop is mutually beneficial collaboration.

Who is this for?

Anyone who enjoys structured technical problem-solving. You do not need to be a member of an N8 partnership institution or a WHPC chapter to join this meeting.

What to Expect

• A short introduction to the challenge
• Collaborative mapping of technical options and development routes
• A synthesised set of recommendations for the innovator to move forward

Your participation helps demystify technology for founders while giving you a chance to collaborate, contribute, and connect with like‑minded experts.
