Summary

Nearly 100 students participated in the "From Events to Outcomes" Datathon, hosted in collaboration with the University of North Carolina Charlotte, using the Zerve platform to analyze real application data over a weekend. The event, which exceeded expectations, featured 23 teams who worked through the night, driven by genuine enthusiasm for solving data problems outside of a classroom setting. The winning team, comprising Meghana Sathi, Anisha Nannapaneni, Akhi Chappidi, and Chandra Siddharth Geddam, focused their analysis on platform user retention and presented concrete ideas for addressing user drop-off, which impressed the product team enough to revisit their findings multiple times. The event highlighted the value of having fresh eyes on a platform, as students often discovered insights that experienced teams might overlook, and the organizers are eager to repeat this successful collaboration.
