We had the opportunity to collaborate with students on the Analytics for Business Decision Making course for Winter 2025, and the experience was enriching. The team brought strong analytical skills to the table, providing insightful data-driven recommendations for business decisions. Their approach to problem-solving was impressive, and the real-world applications they explored were valuable. While some areas could be improved, particularly around the complexity of advanced analytical tools, overall, it was a great experience that helped us refine our strategies. We look forward to future collaborations with Riipen!
