It was another year of engaging events for the MinneAnalytics community. 2025 saw the return of the MinneMUDAC Student Data Challenge, during which 65 teams analyzed data for real insights to create better outcomes for Big Brother Big Sisters Twin Cities.

Later in the spring, hundreds of you came out for perhaps our best Data Tech conference of all time at Best Buy HQ. This past fall, we had the opportunity to be a community partner at the Women in AI & Data Science Conference (WiADS) at University of Minnesota.

Throughout the year, we had the chance to support the next generation of data science professionals through MinneAnalytics Scholarships (meet the 2025 cohort here).

Thank you to everyone who participated at one of our events. You make this community possible. We look forward to seeing you at one of our exciting events coming up in 2026!
