Cognizant of the many financial issues and insecurities individuals and businesses are facing amid the COVID-19 crisis, Razer Fintech launches its "first-ever digital hackathon in Singapore." Running from May 15th until May 17th, this challenge empowers Singapore tertiary students, young professionals, and start-ups to put forward solutions to problems that have been "exacerbated by COVID-19."

These problems include but are not limited to the difficulty companies are having with accessing grants and support "in a timely and efficient manner," solutions for businesses who are looking to seamlessly move into the digital space, additional funding options to small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as solutions for underinsured consumers who are not necessarily tech-literate, and more.
