A IBM Case Study
Fiducia & GAD IT AG, a German IT services provider for the financial industry, faced the dual challenge of new competition and partnership opportunities from disruptive FinTechs. To demonstrate their own innovation excellence, they partnered with vendor IBM and chose the IBM Bluemix platform to evaluate new concepts through collaborative hackathons.
The solution implemented by IBM involved hosting hackathons on the IBM Bluemix platform, which incorporated IBM Watson services to build new systems of engagement. The results were highly successful, with a second hackathon producing 12 executable prototypes from new ideas in just three days, sharpening the customer's competitive edge and demonstrating their leadership as an industry innovator.
