Overview

A great financial technology hackathon by Open Bank Project and Mutinerie coworking will host up to 50 programmers, designers and members of the financial services industry who will come together for a day of brainstorming and software creation.

Innovation and game changing ideas in retail banking, capital markets, payments, big data and beyond are all up for grabs.

A hackathon is a fun and collaborative session where a diverse crowd of designers and technology experts, collectively referred to as ‘the hackers’ quickly build (aka “hack together”) cool innovative applications and show off the fruits of their labour at the end of the day.

Attendees will have a host of application programming interfaces (APIs) and services they can leverage and combine in order to bring their innovative ideas to life. They can participate alone or join a team.

Different Bitcoin APIs will also be here to use and test. What you can do with it ? Mobile app to give easily to charity or street musician ; accept bitcoin on a ecommerce website; Dataviz on Bitcoin exchange.
