Hacks/Hackers Lab

Special treat this week! We'll be diving into the data behind the Panama Papers investigation that you've been hearing so much about.

The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists will be releasing (https://panamapapers.icij.org/20160426-database-coming-soon.html) information on over 200,000 offshore entities that were involved in this investigation.

The goal of our event is to combine this dataset with others (e.g., campaign finance donors and lobbyist employers) that could lead to others that could lead to interesting findings.

We will have on hand a few other datasets and API keys that have been provided to us by OpenCorporates. But please all bring your own ideas, data and skills to help us dig in.
