Royal Bank of Scotland Hackathon

DESCRIPTION

At RBS (Royal Bank of Scotland) and in its innovation center called Open experience or OX, a hackathon is organized every year to encourage new employees, mostly interns, to apply innovation and design thinking to everything they do.  It’s a week full of activities and all teams have the opportunity to present their ideas to a jury that would select three winners to continue working on their projects.
