Can you and your team unravel the biases within our sample data to create a more transparent and equitable model?

How does it work?

The SAS Hackathon Boot Camp is an exciting challenge that fosters collaboration using the latest AI and analytics technology on SAS® Viya®. Participants will tackle a challenging data set that simulates real-world scenarios, with guidance from SAS experts in R&D, Product Specialization and our advisory organization.

This event offers a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience, enhance your skills, and network with SAS experts and fellow participants. It is open to customers, partners and students from any industry.
