-After [[http://opendata.ch/2011/06/opendata2011-medienmitteilung/|initiating the debate]] in  national politics and the media, it is now time to make open data happen: right here, right now, with the tools at hand, the data within reach, to bring out the ideas everybody is coming up with. We are kick-starting a community of designers, coders, communicators and activists to help Switzerland move towards a more ‘direct data democracy’ for participation, transparency and accountability from the grassroots.
+At past [[event:home|Swiss Open Data Camps]] we have already had several applications and visualizations around the theme of "money", among them the [[http://bern.budget.opendata.ch/|Bern Budget Visualisation]]. At the next make.opendata.ch hackdays in March 2013 we will focus on the theme of finance, procurement, budgets and material worth in the widest sense.
-==== The first projects are here! ====
+Data is the so-called oil of the 21st century - with the difference being that every minute there is more data produced at an enormous and growing rate. We are excited to create and take part in these hackdays to explore the mountains of data treasures around, exchange ideas and start-up new applications around new possibilities.

+In Bern on Thursday we will have a General Meeting of the Opendata.ch society as well as a podium discussion on the subject of Open Data. On Friday and Saturday the hackdays will take place in Bern and Sierre in parallel – co-organised by [[http://www.iwi.unibe.ch/content/index_eng.html|University of Bern (Institute of Information Systems)]] and [[http://iig.hevs.ch/switzerland/institute-business-information-systems.html|HEVS Sierre (Institute of Business Information Systems)]]. The event is __free__ and we invite participants or all backgrounds, languages and experience to join us.
-On the first Open Data Camp many exciting pioneer projects were initiated and implemented. See the [[http://makeopendata.ch/doku.php?do=search&id=%40project|projects documented in our Wiki]].
