For the second time in Hollywood, PwC will be hosting a simulated challenge to devise innovative solutions to one of the most pressing global issues in the Financial Crime space.
Individuals and professionals will compete in separate tracks, and will be provided with computing power enabling them to work on their solutions using next generation technology. The competition will include a presentation to our panel of judges and an award ceremony where we'll announce a first-place winner and runner up on the last day of the conference. Prizes will be awarded!
Participants of the Hackathon must also be registered for the ACAMS 27th Annual AML & Anti-Financial Crime Conference - Hollywood.
ACAMS is the largest international membership organization for Anti-Financial Crime professionals and we are proud to be both a sponsor and presenter.
