The DATA MINING CUP (DMC for short) will kick off in the spring of 2017 with a tricky problem in the field of intelligent data analytics. For 18 years, prudsys AG has been inviting student teams from around the world to solve practical data mining problems. The ten best teams will be recognized at the prudsys personalization summit, the leading event for omni-channel personalization in retail. The top three teams will also receive attractive cash prizes. 

Interested students have six weeks to submit a solution to the DMC problem. Prospective participants can register their team for the competition starting on 8 March.
