Cortex: The Online Analytics Simulation Game 

You work on a team of data scientists for a non-profit organization. You’ll be given a dataset of 1 million potential donors. Using SAS, players will build predictive models to determine who to contact in their fundraising campaign. Team leaders upload their decisions to the leaderboard to see where they rank.

The top teams will present their findings to a panel of industry judges at the end of the week.

Participants and winners will earn a SAS e-badge (along with bragging rights!).”
