    Hackaholics By Wema

    In 2017, Wema Bank flipped the script on the traditional banking experience with ALAT, Nigeria's first and only fully digital bank. Built by a team of indigenous developers, ALAT is proof that we can hack our way to a better future.

    This year, we are switching things up with Hackaholics, Wema Bank's first hackathon, and everyone is welcome.

    Hackaholics is a radical gathering of developers, web designers and creative thinkers interested in building products and developing solutions to improve financial services and other sectors of Nigerian life. We are particularly excited about potential innovations in personal finance, big data, retail banking, mobile payments, risk management, currency and stock trading, investment, regulatory compliance as well as health and the environment.
