Fintech Hackathon announced for 8th & 9th March in Norwich
Organised and hosted by Aviva Foundry, Norfolk County Council (with funding via the
Norfolk Investment Framework) will be running a Fintech Hackathon on the 8th and
9th of March 2024 in Norwich. Supported by Tech East, FIG and New Anglia LEP the
Hackathon will bring together a diverse group of participants and mentors – including
Tech, innovators, and local businesses – to explore key challenges, and devise solutions!
The Fintech Hackathon aims to bring together the Fintech community in Norwich and
Norfolk, and to foster creativity, collaboration, and entrepreneurship in the region.
Why a Fintech Hackathon?
Fintech is one of the fastest growing and most disruptive sectors in the global economy,
transforming the way we access, manage, and use financial services. Fintech offers
tremendous opportunities for innovation, efficiency, and inclusion, but also poses
significant challenges and risks for consumers, businesses, and regulators.
The Hackathon aims to forge new links within the Fintech community in Norwich and
Norfolk and showcase the region’s potential as a Fintech hub! We want to:
Provide a platform for Fintech enthusiasts, professionals, students, and
entrepreneurs to network, learn, and collaborate.
Generate innovative and viable solutions for real-life business problems faced
inspired by problem statements from the members of the Financial Industry
Group (FIG)
Who will be involved?
The Fintech Hackathon is open to anyone who is interested in Fintech and has the skills,
knowledge, and motivation to participate.
The participants will form diverse and multidisciplinary teams, with different roles such
as developers, designers, analysts, marketers, and project managers. The teams will work
on an exciting, real-world Challenge, and develop and pitch their solutions to a panel of
judges and mentors in a dedicated Final Celebration event at Aviva Norwich.
