NIMASA Launches Hackathon 2026, Opens to All Ages
The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) has launched the application portal for the National Innovation Hackathon 2026 as part of its NIMASA Blue Economy Accelerator Programme (NIMASA-BEAP). The portal opened on October 5, 2026, and now allows participation from all Nigerians aged 18 years and above, eliminating previous age restrictions.
