The launch event for Hacks\/Hackers South Wales x South West took place on the 9th of November.
\nThis expanding international grassroots journalism organisation attracted about 30 people including working journalists, technologists, academics and students to Tremshed Tech in the Cardiff city center. Some of the participants may be there because of the free beer offered, but most of them were pretty keen on share their ideas about the potential innovation in news with the help of technology.
\n\u201cWe hope that people can share knowledge, learn from each other, and improve the way that information is found and communicated to their readers,\u201d said one of the organiser Martin Chorley who is himself a hacker, \u201cHacks\/Hackers is a global movement. Our chapter is focused on both South Wales and the South West of England. Our intention is to promote connections and grow the community on both sides of the border.\u201d
