OBH was exactly the opportunity we were looking for to explore, experiment, and improve our product. It was great to see so much support for open banking innovation in the industry, both when it comes to feedback and availability for further collaboration. We hope this is only the first step towards making finance more accessible to everyone.

OBH highlighted aspects of banking I wasn't aware were open to disruption. It made me rethink certain concepts and gave us the opportunity to innovate. There is not much more to ask from a hackathon. Thank you for the well-organized event!

OBH drove us to launch TimedFX as a business. Our experience was fantastic, a very well organized event. The mentoring sessions were extremely valuable in consolidating ideas, improving presentations and helping us understand the many common roadblocks we would be likely to hit.

The hackathon was a very pleasant experience! We had fun and learned a lot from the interactions and open discussion with mentor and participant. This helped us a lot in working through our idea and defining it better. It was a great opportunity to meet new people and help our team collaborate better.

I am incredibly excited by the projects OBH has uncovered and I believe that each year can bring even more interesting projects in the spotlight. OBH is a launching pad for early stage projects and a first step toward a collaboration with financial institutions and relevant fintech players.
