Hackathon Announced/Demo

There will be a hackathon, between October 13-15 at the CIS conference (as part of the Los Angeles blockchain week that will challenge digital securities platform developers to fully adapt their applications to support Ownera within the 3 days of the event.

Ownera will be demoing the API and also leading a technical session for developers on October 15-16 at the Los Angeles Convention Center during CIS. The API will also be made available early to participants in The Global Hackathon that begins on October 13 and ends on stage at CIS, where Ownera and AWS will give an award for the most innovative use of their API.
