Launching a global and entirely virtual Data Science Hackathon during a pandemic wasn’t easy, but it sparked fantastic innovation and comradery for Visa’s data scientists. If you aspire to launch your own hackathon or any significant event to engage analytic teams, Laura and Arya will walk you through all the major milestones you’ll need to plan and execute to make it happen. This presentation will cover topics such as 1) securing executive buy-in, 2) building a budget proposal, 3) proper infrastructure, and 4) what successes you can highlight at the end of the event, among others.
