From AI Ideas to Decision-Ready Proof In Days

It was amazing to see so many participants come together. We’ve seen a lot of energy and motivation in the RegTech4Good Challenge. We believe the fantastic results and presentations will have an immense business value and social impact in the future. We look forward to many more collaborations with NayaOne to drive the next growth phase for Africa’s homegrown innovative solutions

Big shout out to the team who made this possible. NayaOne for being our innovation partner and being involved every step of the way. Our Valley team for bringing the business and data expertise that was needed.

NayaOne’s Digital Sandbox provided us with a secure, isolated environment pre-loaded with synthetic data and third-party tools. This meant our teams could bypass the usual weeks of procurement, data cleansing, and environment setup. Instead of spending the morning configuring servers, they spent it building solutions.

As we look to capitalise on high value financial use cases, my Quantum Hackathon initiative was designed to bring together the brightest minds across finance and technology with a special focus on quantum. This Hackathon, in partnership with IBM, has shown what successful collaboration between industry and academia can look like, and I congratulate WarwiQC for their victory in this fierce competition. It is important that quantum finance innovation continues apace, and the City of London and the UK, through collaboration and competition, can play a leading role in advancing quantum technology.

To build cohesive and resolute, a core issue like ‘Helping Vulnerable Customers’ is easier said than done. Right hackathon platform and subsequent support in training, grooming and access to many APIs and Datasets are critical to build a tech solution.

We Team 1, have won the 1st place at the inaugural edition of RegTech Africa x NayaOne hackathon (RegTech4Good Challenge). We used NayaOne’s platform to get access to APIs, Digital Sandbox to work on a tech solution. It’s important that hackathon participants get exposure to the tech solutions, which we got from the platform and used in our solution building.

The RegTech4Good Challenge Hackathon gave me a real idea of what it is like to work with a truly international and remote team. It required patience, open-mindedness, understanding, and good time management. I will admit, it was difficult at times, especially the later it got, but this was a great opportunity to learn, grow, and create connections that span the globe. One that I would gladly do again.

The NayaOne platform was great to explore and use some of the open APIs and Datasets, which also allowed participants to use their Digital Sandbox to develop and find solutions. After giving so much effort, we Team 1 got the first place and won the hackathon.

We thank NayaOne for giving us the opportunity to find solutions in a Digital Sandbox based Hackathon platform during the NayaOne x IIT Blockchain Hackathon 2022. The industry APIs, Datasets, Mentorship, and Guidance offered to create Synthetic Data on the platform were very informative and a great experience for all the participants.

Working on the platform has invoked huge interest for Blockchain technology amongst participants, and we wish to explore more about it now. We look forward to participating in more innovative challenges of this kind. Thank You NayaOne for hosting such a collaborative tech hackathon!

It’s exciting to come together with other professionals to proffer solutions to some of the biggest problems plaguing the Blockchain industry. We have to say a big thank you to NayaOne for the platform.

For the first time, we got access to many industry APIs and Datasets to use in the NayaOne x IIT Blockchain Hackathon 2022 through the Digital Sandbox based Hackathon platform.

We truly can’t wait to see us build the Blockchain industry that we all deserve to take India ahead.

Congratulations to all the participants of the SustainableFinance.Live Hackathon event held in London! We at Finextra and ResponsibleRisk Ltd. are proud to have collaborated with NayaOne and utilised the Digital Sandbox platform for the hackathon. Participants had access to industry datasets, APIs, and a developer environment for building real-world, innovative solutions.

The hackathon offered participants access to a range of data sourced from various domains such as Geospatial data, Carbon emissions data, and more to create new sustainability-influenced ways of evaluating risk and allocating capital. We are looking forward to more collaborations with NayaOne in the near future!

In partnership with IBM/IBM Quantum and supported by NayaOne, we’ve brought together top talent in quantum, finance and tech across the UK and the rest of Europe to tackle high-impact challenges for financial services.
