Citizens Bank is inviting early-stage startups, developer teams, students and other innovators to put their creativity and talent to work to solve some of the thorniest issues currently faced by banks at its second hackathon, from Oct. 4-6 at District Hall in Boston’s Seaport District. The Citizens Challenge hackathon reflects increasing customer demand for seamless digital solutions and the importance of meeting that demand for banks such as Citizens, which is currently hiring hundreds of software engineers and establishing technology hubs in Boston, Rhode Island, Charlotte, N.C., and Nashville, Tenn. This year’s hackathon, held in conjunction with District Hall and the Open Bank Project, includes coaching, workshops, mentoring sessions, get-togethers and prizes for great ideas.
