Citadel Data Open Datathon

Hosted by Citadel LLC and Citadel Securities in partnership with Correlation One, the Data Open is inviting students to virtually compete at West Coast Datathon, which will take place virtually this October! The Data Open challenges students from the world's best universities to tackle real-world social challenges in topics such as urban traffic, renewable energy, and education.

Top performing students have the opportunity to win $15,000 in cash prizes, exclusive recruiting opportunities with Citadel, and global recognition.
