The DataHacks4Fi competition series brings together data specialists (analysts and software developers) and financial service providers (FSPs) to leverage tools and technologies for crowdsourcing data-driven solutions to real-world problems. The competition will promote and demonstrate the use and analysis of data (big data, small data, alternative data and new data trends) to FSPs, which will ultimately serve the financially excluded customer through innovative data analytics.

The competition seeks to advance collaboration between groundbreakers in Africa and financial sector players. It aims to support young innovative minds across Africa, and provide a platform for them to learn the art of engaging with FSPs and presenting their initiatives.
