About this event

Nationwide is on your side (did you sing that?). Although we’re in the insurance business, innovation is an essential part of who we are. Everyday our goal is to create a sense of security by focusing on the value we bring to our members. We are proud to be in the Top 100 Best Places to Work (FORTUNE), 50 Best Workplaces for Diversity (FORTUNE), and the Best Place to Work in IT (Computerworld), but we are always striving for what’s next.

We are looking for the best developers, entrepreneurs, and designers to be on our side in creating a safer and more secure world by developing products that help millennials navigate buying their first home, inform small or medium business owners on how to elevate their businesses, and brings Nationwide members together during a catastrophe. Join us on May 19-20 for the Nationwide Hackathon and help reshape insurance as you know it!
